Reporting the effects of the pandemic

“The success of the vaccination programme has given hope that the virus can be contained – but alongside this hope is the recognition that COVID-19 will continue to cast a long shadow over all aspects of everyday life, in particular the health and care system.”

DESIGN SNAPSHOT

Working with Care Quality Commission on the 2021 State of Care report following the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Peoples’ experiences

Our 2021 concept focuses on how this year’s report talks about peoples’ experiences of care in England across the health and care sectors. We used a simple speech bubble shape to house images depicting care workers and recipients of care. On the main report cover these are set against a barchart background of corresponding sector colours. This concept follows through to the Monitoring the Mental Health Act report, with its usual orange sector colour.

Campaign and interactive support

As with the previous year the 2021 concept design feeds through to a library of social media and presentation graphics. We have again supported the CQC in-house web team with interactive charts for the online report presentation, created with Highcharts/Everviz
