Case study: AFG

Alternative Futures Group (AFG) is a leading health and social care charity supporting people with learning disabilities and mental health conditions across North West England. Its brand no longer reflected the scale, confidence or leadership it had earned.

The objective

A brand to support lives - today and into the future

The identity needed to signal leadership in a complex, competitive sector. A vibrant colour palette brought energy and optimism, while a serif headline font added gravitas and authority.

Photography and film featuring AFG support workers and the people they support grounded the brand in real life—capturing genuine relationships, human connection and everyday impact. Nothing staged or abstract. Just truth.

The result

A brand built for what's next

The new brand gives AFG greater clarity, confidence and consistency—strengthening stakeholder communication, internal alignment and its presence across health and social care. It supports the organisation’s ambition to grow while staying true to the people it serves.
