Croydon
Mental Health Croydon needed a free online directory where people could find mental health services across the borough. Accessibility wasn't optional — it was the entire point. People in crisis needed to find help quickly, regardless of how they access the web.
We built a search-first interface with comprehensive filtering, ensuring the site was fully navigable with screen readers and keyboard-only input. Every service listing is structured for clarity, with contact details, opening hours, and referral information front and centre.
It is a public directory. Listings, search, and crisis routes sit on one site so people in Croydon are not hunting across ten others.
