Supporting Families.
FDP partnered with Barnardo’s, one of the UK’s leading children’s charities, to
create the Barnardo’s Parenting website — a resource hub designed to support
parents and caregivers in navigating the complexities of family life.
Our goal was to design a user-friendly, accessible platform that delivers trusted
advice, tools, and resources for every stage of parenting.

Parenting comes with unique challenges, and Barnardo’s needed an online space to provide practical support for families, with resources tailored to diverse needs. The platform had to:
Be highly accessible and inclusive for all users.
Engage parents with a welcoming and intuitive design.
Deliver clear and actionable content around parenting advice.
We placed parents and caregivers at the heart of the design process. Through user
research, we identified key pain points and opportunities for the platform to
offer immediate value.
Implementation
A clean, easy-to-navigate UI design ensures parents find what they need quickly.
Mobile-first development caters to busy parents accessing the site on-the-go.
We made sure inclusivity was a top-priority, to support users of all abilities:
Clear typography and contrast for readability.

Outcome
The Barnardo’s Cygnet Programme delivers:
A seamless user experience with clear pathways to advice and support.
Increased engagement with parents through practical, accessible tools.
A scalable platform that reflects Barnardo’s mission to support families across the
UK.
Parents now have a trusted, easy-to-use resource they can rely on during challenging
times.

"We have worked with Jeremy since 2008, originally just for print services. This has
developed into using FDP’s creative team to design and produce various collections
of printed training collateral for the Cygnet Autism and Sleep projects.
I have also worked with FDP to create a web based product that supports the service
I run and our clients find easy to use. The supporting print documents are a good
quality and enhance the service I am able to offer. FDP put their expertise into the
project while also valuing our creative ideas."
