RNID, the largest UK charity working with hearing loss and hearing health, has appointed
Enable Interactive to transform the charity’s digital marketing and internal communications
in line with its new corporate strategy.

Enable, the UK’s top digital agency for the not-for-profit sector, is overhauling
RNID’s website (www.rnid.org.uk) to communicate the importance of valuing hearing
to its core visitors and the wider general public as part of the charity’s new strategy,
while vastly improving the site’s ease of use and navigation to several additional
campaign microsites. The new website is due for launch in 2010 in good time for 
RNID’s 100th anniversary in 2011.

Enable Interactive is also transforming the RNID’s intranet, scoping and designing
new templates for its 1200 widely dispersed employees and volunteers across the 
UK

Katherine Brashaw, RNID New Media Manager said: “Enable Interactive stood out from
the rest in terms of experience, strategic insight and delivery, offering us the
revolution in digital marketing that we want in order to raise broader awareness
of the importance of valuing hearing and acting quickly on hearing loss and hearing
damage.

“Enable’s charity and accessibility experience along with the team’s challenging
approach and deep thinking about our digital strategy were the main reasons we got
them on board. This year we have begun to develop our digital strategy with the 
current resources we have seeing site visits grow 68 per cent year-on-year but with
Enable as part of our team we know we will be going further in increasing our reach
and achieving the desired step change.”

The new RNID website features will include:

• Unified user experience across the whole site

• Targeted and regionalised personalisation of content

• Ability to track donor journeys and create cross-promotional opportunities

• Best practice accessibility without compromising the quality of interface design
or online brand

• Sensitivity to core audience needs

Brashaw said: “We have had some difficulties with our existing site due to technical
constraints but we believe that we can put this behind us and create a new consistent
brand experience for our employees and supporters visiting the website.

“In order to fully embrace our new strategy all aspects of our internal and external
digital offering will be transformed.”

Enable has recently recruited Nick Torday as account director who will lead the 
RNID account and comes with seven years experience of running digital teams in the
charity sector, most recently at Breast Cancer Care.

Torday said: “Working at Enable is a great challenge because we don’t compromise
on the quality of work we deliver to our clients and only work on projects that 
we believe passionately in. This is the way all digital and creative agencies should
work. RNID is exactly the sort of large, established charity we love to work with
to unleash the vast possibilities of digital marketing, so the whole agency is buzzing
about its decision to go with us.”
