Aphasia Support Case Study

Bridging Silence: Transforming Lives Through Digital Innovation

Every year, The Commerce Team Global invests in projects that make a positive social impact.

In 2024, we collaborated with Aphasia Support, a registered UK charity whose mission is to improve the wellbeing of people with aphasia and their carers by providing tailored speech and language therapy alongside long-term support.

Brief

To support Aphasia Support’s mission and growth, we assisted the charity by migrating their existing website from WordPress to Shopify.

Challenges

Aphasia Support’s legacy website on WordPress needed modernising and a fresh look. The organisation has grown from a local Yorkshire-focused project into a larger charity within the UK. The old website not only limited their fundraising potential but also constrained their ability to expand their network and reach people in need.

Our Solution

Our team of developers recommended transitioning the charity to a brand-new Shopify website to reduce maintenance costs, enhance branding and design, and maximise fundraising by better promoting the charity’s activities.

Result

  • Site migration to Shopify
  • Increased audience reach
  • Improved user journey
  • Donations and fundraising capability improved

“This website will support our long-term plans. The charity is keen to grow across the UK, reaching areas where long-term support for people with aphasia is currently lacking. It will help us maximise fundraising income and promote the growth of the charity’s branch network, which is essential to advancing our mission."
