Welcome to your new brand

Healthwatch gives people across England a new way to engage with their local health and social care services. Every voice counts when it comes to shaping the future of health and social care, and improving it for today. Everything that local Healthwatch does will bring the voice and influence of local people to the development and delivery of local services.

We need Healthwatch to make as big an impact on the public as possible. People in local communities need to be able to engage quickly and easily with their local Healthwatch and understand what it can help them with. They need to understand that Healthwatch England is there at the national level, acting on their behalf and giving local Healthwatch collective power and voice.

Healthwatch has so many different audiences, from local authorities to central Government; health and social care professionals to local people; from the people who use services now, to those who might need them in future. It’s all about services that are more accountable to local people, and more responsive to the needs of local communities.

So at the heart of the Healthwatch brand is the idea of ‘voice’, ‘dialogue’, and ‘communication’. We spent months consulting the people that Healthwatch needs to engage with to help us define these ideas and the result is a brand that will make what we’re all about clear to everyone who needs to engage with Healthwatch, especially patients, people who use social care services, and the wider public.

Over a period of 6 months, we held workshops and consultations and engaged with over 600 people in research who helped us define these ideas. Face-to-face in 17 focus groups across the country, over the phone and online, we captured the views and responses of key stakeholders and audiences, from the people commissioning Healthwatch to the people who will run and use it.

The visual system that brings this concept to life is flexible and coherent so it will help carry the meaning and vision of Healthwatch in whatever form we need it to. From the poster in the GP’s surgery to the annual report for Parliament. At a local level it will look and feel practical and dynamic. At the national level, authoritative and influential.

The first challenges for Healthwatch will be public awareness, public understanding, and public engagement. Healthwatch has to be visible, distinctive and relevant. We want to make sure that the Healthwatch brand quickly becomes a familiar sight in local communities.

How each local Healthwatch executes their individual branding is up to them. The visual system presented here is flexible enough to allow each organisation to cultivate its own particular personality to reflect the needs of its own local area, which will be diverse and unique to that place. Healthwatch England is providing the supporting materials that will make this possible. But having one unifying identity across the whole of the Healthwatch network, the same core logo, colour palette and core messages, will strengthen and amplify the power of the brand at both national and local level. Both Healthwatch England and each local Healthwatch organisation will be able to use this unifying brand to support the specific communication of their particular key messages, whilst cultivating their unique and separate identities.

Clearly linking the national and local visual identities will help us to more quickly establish the significance of Healthwatch in local communities.

That’s why brand and identity is so important.

For patients, professionals and the public, being visible, both in local communities and at a national level, will be one of the surest signs that Healthwatch is ‘doing its job’.

Typeface Local Healthwatch brand guidelines 10

Use Stag in different weights, styles, sizes and colours to create your own unique design style within your documents.

Stag Medium and Heavy weights are very effective for headings, pull-outs and to highlight key information.

Stag Sans in Light and Book work well for body copy in your communications.

StagStag Sans

There are three typeface options for all your communications.

StagIt’s distinctive with a strong personality. Stag is available in a variety of weights. It’s versatility makes it perfect for all communications. Stag is used for all professionally designed materials.

Stag SansIt complements Stag and works well for large amounts of copy and Easy Read materials. Stag Sans is used for all professionally designed materials.

Stag can be purchased from vllg.com

TrebuchetUse Trebuchet for all on-screen communications. This includes web text and Microsoft Office applications, such as Word templates and PowerPoint presentations. Trebuchet can also be used for Easy Read materials.

Your computer’s default font should be set to Trebuchet. So when you are working in Microsoft Office etc all of your text will automatically appear in this font.

This is a standard font within Microsoft Windows and many other software packages. It is the preferred typeface when Stag is unavailable and is used on our Word templates and other Microsoft Office applications.

Trebuchet

Photography Local Healthwatch brand guidelines 11

Community

Portraits

We have created two distinct categories of photography:

Community

These images show people in natural and realistic poses and situations.

Portraits These capture individuals in a cut-out style, using the colours from your palette.

Your chosen images should reflect the broad diversity of your audiences in gender, age, race and disability. Try to choose or commission images that feel natural and observational rather than staged.

Dull, poor quality, uninspiring and clichéd images can be detrimental to your reputation and the effectiveness of your communications. Only use images that add relevance, personality and atmosphere. Through the subject matter you choose and the style and quality of your imagery, you have the ability to create engaging materials that will help you connect with your audiences.

Our Voice iconsYou don’t always need great images to create effective materials. Try using Our Voice icons, see pages 17-24 for some ideas. When they are combined with an eye catching headline or inspirational quote your materials can be just as effective.

Photography community Local Healthwatch brand guidelines 12

The Community photographic style focusses on the individuals and communities you engage and connect with.

Use images to help create an intriguing narrative and engage your audience. When choosing or taking pictures try looking beyond the straightforward, typical and informative to find a more interesting perspective or angle. A shallow depth of field or cropping in close to the detail will add to the impact.

Whether the camera is focusing in on an individual orcapturing a conversation they should feel natural and spontaneous. Images capture a moment in time.

1. Select Grayscale from the image menu

2. Select Duotone from the image menu

3. Choose Monotone and enter a Healthwatch palette colour

4. From the layer palette select Multiply

Portraits showcase the individuals you engage with. Portraits are greyscale images on a white background. The images are given a transparent background and use the colours from our palette. Different sizes and crops are then overlayed to create a distinctive portrait style.

In order to create a monotone image you will need either a cut-out image or an image on a white background and image editing software such as Adobe Photoshop®.

Using the guide opposite, open the image and follow steps one to four. Use complementary colours combinations from your local Healthwatch palette and overlay a selection of images in different sizes and crops to create your own portrait style.

Accessibility

Designing accessible communications can present a real challenge. Your communications need to be visually interesting to engage a reader and legible for all our audiences.

Accessibility isn’t just about type size. Clear space, uncluttered design, good navigation, colour contrast, line feed and alignment are all equally important. Analyse the majority of your target audience and design with them in mind.

You should aim to make your communications available to as many people as possible, while balancing this with the need to be effective, powerful and visually stimulating.

Type sizeFor vision impaired audiences or people with a learning disability follow the Large Print and Easy Read guidelines recommended minimum size of 16pt for body copy. However, if appropriate to the targeted audience, smaller typefaces are permissible. The RNIB See it Right clear print guidelines recommend a minimum x-height of 2mm. This equates to 11pt when using Trebuchet or Stag. (The x-height is the height of a lowercase ‘x’ in the typeface). See page 16 for further Easy Read information guidance.

Capital lettersCopy should be set in upper and lowercase. Setting text in large amounts of capital letters can be harder to read than lowercase letters. Using capital letters for headings and emphasising single words is acceptable.

ItalicsTreat these in a similar way to capital letters. Some audiences find them difficult to read so they should be used minimally. Using bold copy or a strong colour to add emphasis is a better alternative.

LeadingLeading (or linefeed) is the space between one line of type and the next, measured from baseline to baseline. If leading is too narrow or too wide, the text will be difficult to read. As a basic rule, the leading should be a minimum of two point sizes larger than the type size.

Word spacingChanging the spacing between letters or words and altering the proportion of the letters (horizontal scaling) are often used to fit more text onto a line. This should be avoided as too little or too much space can make text illegible.

AlignmentLeft-aligned body copy with a ragged right-hand margin is the most legible, as it is easier to find the start and finish of each line. The spaces between each word are also equal. Please set text in a single column so it can be read using screen readers.

Numerals

Numerals should always align on the baseline. The baseline is the line upon which most letters “sit”.

ContrastThere should always be high tonal contrast between the text and the background. Contrast is greatest when dark colours are combined with very pale colours or white. Black or very dark coloured copy on a white background is the most accessible.

Reversing out copyThe background colour should be as dark as possible. White copy reversed out of our dark blue or black is the most legible. Attention should be paid to type size and very light weights of type to ensure copy is always legible. Solid areas of colour should be kept to a small area of the page or screen.

Copy on imagesSetting text on an image can sometimes make it difficult to read. Copy set in a box will ensure excellent contrast. Avoid using transparent boxes over images. Pictures should not be overlayed onto other images.

Titles and headingsHeadings and titles should never run across a double page spread.

CopywritingCopy should be engaging, informative and concise. Avoid writing long headings that lack impact. Well-crafted copy and clear, effective, modern design allows us to engage with your target audiences.

Accessibility – Easy Read

The Easy Read communications format was specifically created to help people with learning difficulties understand information easily.

If you are designing for an audience with learning difficulties please follow these guidelines:

Write clear languageMake sure words and sentences are easy to understand. Use language that sounds natural when spoken. Avoid using too much punctuation and any abbreviations. Highlight important information.

Use picturesPictures help more people understand the main information. They should be positioned to the left of the text. Pictures must be clear and reflect the main points. They can be drawings or photographs. Only use one style throughout.

TypefacePeople with learning difficulties generally prefer a Sans Serif typeface. So use Stag Sans or Trebuchet.

Type sizeThe minimum type size is 16pt for printed information. Headings and posters should use a larger type size.

Overview Local Healthwatch brand guidelines 18

Our Voice graphics are a key component of your local Healthwatch brand. They can create a strong, distinctive connection with your logo, values and ambitions.

The concept of dialogue, communication and listening goes to the heart of what local Healthwatch is all about.

Our Voice graphics are designed to hold both images and copy. They can illustrate an idea, highlight a message or create a background pattern. They can be used very simply to create impact or layered to create greater complexity and energy. They allow you the flexibility to connect with different audiences across all communication channels.

The following pages explain how to use the Our Voice icons in our visual system.

Everything you produce can use a version of Our Voice graphics and they should be used as a pair. With consistent and coherent usage you have the opportunity to differentiate and build a strong visual style that is easily recognised.

ArtworkA series of Our Voice graphics are available in Adobe Illustrator® eps and jpeg format. Designers can use the Illustrator format to create their own distinctive designs.

Document title 2

The consumer champion It’s important to communicate clearly to all your audiences. Distinctive, well designed typography strengthens and adds character to your communications.

Keep headings prominent, clear and limited to a small number of words. They can sit in an Our Voice icon box for further emphasis. Introductory text can be highlighted in a larger size, heavier font or colour. Body copy is typeset ranged left, ragged right. Never justify text as this can make it hard to read.

Ensure there is sufficient contrast between the copy and the background to ensure good legibility.

Our Voice illustrations can be used to add your own personality to a document.

For more guidance on the individual elements please refer to the detailed descriptions within the graphic elements and accessibility sections.

Postcards

The principles of Healthwatch brand elements should be applied to all our promotional materials to reinforce a strong and coherent brand.

Postcards can be a useful way of promoting Healthwatch to your audiences. Keep your language and design eye-catching, motivating, informative and easy to understand. Think of them as mini campaigns.

The postcard design options, shown opposite, are available in Indesign CS 5.5 templates. Your designers can customise them with your local Healthwatch logo. Or use these guidelines to create your own distinctive designs.

Use the CMYK.eps logo version.

Newspaper ads

Newspaper and magazine advertising can be helpful in reaching key audiences.

Your advert can appear in the local Healthwatch colour palette or greyscale depending on the publication. Try using the Our Voice icons and photography style to add emphasis and highlight information.

Use Stag for headings, this typeface family includes a variety of weights, offering extensive design flexibility. Trebuchet can be used if Stag is unavailable.

Keep your copy clear, punchy, informative and well edited. Your design should be strong, distinctive and eye-catching to help your advert stand-out on a busy page. Try not to overcrowd your advert with copy and images. White space helps to improve visual impact and legibility.

Banners

You may often require materials to promote your local Healthwatch at events. Pictured here is a pop-up banner design option.

When using images remember to ensure they are of high enough quality to appear at large sizes. It is important that your colours are matched accurately on all materials, finishes and surfaces, irrespective of the manufacturing process or printing technique.

Always consider the environment in which the banners will be displayed and that key information is at the correct viewing height.

Use the .eps version of your logo as this can be re-sized without affecting the printed logo quality.

Digital approach for the Healthwatch network Over the past few months work has been focusing on phase 1 of the development of the Healthwatch network. This has involved developing a digital brand and web presence to support the Healthwatch England website. Once local authorities have commissioned the new local Healthwatch organisations, Healthwatch England will move into phase 2 and will be working to support these organisations by offering recommended approaches to domain names, digital branding and information capture. Healthwatch England will be working with key stakeholders and will update you on progress with this programme of work.

Web banner

Web banner advertising can be helpful in reaching key audiences.

Shown opposite is a 468x60px web banner. This illustrates how your messages can be split across a number of frames whilst the Our Voice graphics animate or fade in and out. The logo can be positioned on the left or right-hand side and must always be reproduced from the appropriate master reference.

Stag is your recommended typeface but Trebuchet can also be used. Use your colour palette to highlight key words and messaging. Our Voice icons work well digitally to help promote your messaging and raise your profile.

When designing for audiences consider the needs of people with sight problems. Ensure a significant tonal difference exists between the different elements of your web banner design.
