The Sussex Beacon refreshes its look – vote for your favourite design!
Brighton based HIV charity, The Sussex Beacon, are asking supporters to help them decide on their new look.
The charity has joined forces with design agency Oliver & Graimes to help bring The Sussex Beacon’s image up to date. Oliver & Graimes have offered to refresh The Sussex Beacon’s brand for free and hope to help the Beacon show that people living with HIV have changing needs and that The Sussex Beacon’s services have adapted to reflect these needs.
Since The Sussex Beacon centre opened in 1992, the services that the charity offers has changed considerably. The centre opened in 1992 when UK AIDs related deaths were rising steadily and the charities services were focused around end of life care.
Now, due to significant advances in drug treatments, the charity offers a range of services to help support people affected by HIV to lead independent and healthy lives.
Jason Warriner, Lead Nurse at The Sussex Beacon, says; “People living with HIV have very different needs now than they did when we first opened our centre. Because of this the services we offer now are very different to the ones we ran when we first opened. We hope that our new look helps to reflect that we are changing and adapting to meet the needs of people living with HIV”.
The Sussex Beacon’s look has been through tweaks and changes in the past. This next update will be the next stage in the journey and will help the charity to reach new service users and supporters, as well as being an exciting time for existing ones.
Simon Dowe, CEO at The Sussex Beacon, says; “We want our current supporters, service users and volunteers to help us decide on our new look. Oliver and Graimes have developed two options and we think that the final decision should be down to the people that have helped us make The Sussex Beacon what it is today. The brand refresh is a considerable gift and we are incredibly grateful to Oliver & Graimes for supporting us in this way.”
