How to use Healthwatch branded templates (E-learning course)

E-learning - 8 September 2022

First impressions matter. It's important we have a consistent brand look, which people recognise and trust. But what if you don't have the budget for a designer? You can access free branded resources to help you save time and money.

We want the public and professionals to instantly recognise Healthwatch through our work. But, having a designer can be a luxury. It can be time-consuming and confusing trying to make branded materials from scratch too.

This course will help you:

Understand the basics of the Healthwatch brand, like what colours and font to use, and where to access lots of free photos for your work.
Learn what resources are available on the Communications Centre. It's our one-stop shop to get all kinds of branded materials, which you can personalise with your local Healthwatch logo – from posters and social media cards to event banners, leaflets and more.
If you use Canva, there's an optional section with some tips and tricks to speed up your designs.
