In summary
A complete redesign and redevelopment of the With Kids charity website, delivering a modern, accessible and scalable digital platform that better communicates the charity’s impact, services and training programmes while supporting future growth.
The backstory
With Kids is a Scottish children's mental health charity that supports children, young people and families through play therapy, family support services and professional training programmes.
Founded in 2008, the organisation has grown significantly, operating across multiple locations and delivering a wide range of services throughout Scotland. The existing website had evolved over many years and no longer reflected the breadth of the charity's work, the strength of its brand or the needs of its audiences.
The Challenge
The project involved far more than a visual redesign. The existing website structure had become difficult to navigate, with content spread across numerous sections and services. Visitors needed to quickly understand the charity's mission, access support services, discover training opportunities and learn about the impact of play therapy.
The site also needed to accommodate a growing volume of content, including service information, news articles, case studies, downloads, training resources and fundraising information. As a busy charity team, With Kids required a solution that would be easy to manage internally without relying on developers for routine updates.
Outcomes & Benefits
The new website provides a significantly improved user experience across desktop, tablet and mobile devices. Visitors can now navigate services, training programmes, impact stories and support opportunities through a clearer and more intuitive structure. The charity benefits from a modern content management system that enables staff to update pages, publish news articles and manage content independently. Comprehensive client training and bespoke video documentation ensure knowledge remains within the organisation, reducing reliance on external support. The website also creates a stronger digital platform for fundraising, awareness raising, stakeholder engagement and future content growth.
Strategic Impact
The website has become a central communications hub for the organisation, helping With Kids better articulate its mission of improving the emotional wellbeing and life chances of children and families through therapeutic support and early intervention. Beyond delivering a modern website, the project established a scalable digital foundation that supports service delivery, training programmes, fundraising initiatives and community engagement. By taking responsibility for hosting, DNS management, technical implementation and staff training, Sandlebridge provided an end-to-end solution that allows the charity team to focus on what matters most—supporting children, young people and families across Scotland.
