Lazarus Care, WordPress Website Design Example for a UK Children’s Residential Care Home

A warm, child centred WordPress website for Lazarus Care, a Birmingham based children’s residential care home offering therapeutic accommodation and specialist support for young people aged 8 to 17.

Timeline: 1-month project

Lazarus Care is a Birmingham based children’s residential care home in the process of establishing a new facility dedicated to providing therapeutic care and accommodation for young people aged 8 to 17 who have experienced challenging early lives. The organisation works closely with local authorities across England, offering placements that prioritise safety, stability, and a genuinely homely environment where every child can grow and thrive. Lazarus Care’s approach is child centred throughout, with support tailored to children experiencing emotional and behavioural difficulties, those with diagnoses including ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder, and those affected by Adverse Childhood Experiences. The organisation also places particular emphasis on sibling continuity, keeping sibling groups together wherever possible. Elite IT Solutions designed and built a multi page WordPress website that presents the organisation’s mission, care philosophy, and full service range to local authority commissioners and referral professionals across England. The site provides a clear, accessible picture of the home’s specialist capabilities and referral pathway, giving placement professionals the information they need to make an enquiry with confidence.

Client

Lazarus Care, a Birmingham based children’s residential care home preparing to open a new facility, offering therapeutic care and accommodation for young people aged 8 to 17, working with local authorities across England.

Context

As a new care provider preparing to receive its first placements, Lazarus Care needed a professional website that could communicate its care philosophy, service range, and organisational values to local authority commissioners and referral professionals, giving them the confidence to consider Lazarus Care as a placement provider.

Problem Statement

Without a professional digital presence, Lazarus Care had no way to communicate its therapeutic approach, its breadth of specialist support, or its commitment to matched, sibling aware placements to the local authority professionals whose referrals the organisation depends on.

Key Pain Points

  • Communicating a compassionate, child centred care philosophy in a way that instilled confidence in local authority commissioners and referral professionals rather than generic organisational language
  • Presenting five distinct service areas, therapeutic care and accommodation, specialist support for complex needs, sibling first approach, carefully matched placements, and flexible placement options, in a clear and accessible structure
  • Establishing organisational credibility for a new care provider that had not yet built a track record visible to commissioners searching for specialist residential placements

We built a multi page WordPress website structured around the needs of local authority professionals rather than a general audience. The homepage leads with a clear brand statement, Compassionate Care Tailored for Every Child, and an embedded video overview of the home. A Get to Know Us section introduces the organisation’s child centred philosophy and its commitment to safe, nurturing, homely environments. The Services page presents all five care pillars in dedicated sections: Therapeutic Care and Accommodation, covering emotional and behavioural support; Specialist Support for Complex Needs, including ADHD and ASD; a Sibling First Approach that prioritises family continuity; Carefully Matched Placements with a rigorous admission process; and Flexible Placement Options spanning long term and short term residential care. The About Us page details the organisation’s specialist capabilities including support for children affected by Adverse Childhood Experiences. A Contact Us page with a referral enquiry form routes commissioner and professional enquiries directly to the team. The warm orange and cream design palette, child appropriate imagery, and accessible copy tone support the organisation’s commitment to a welcoming, homely environment.

Lazarus Care now has a professional WordPress website that presents its therapeutic care model, specialist support capabilities, and placement approach to local authority commissioners across England. The site gives referral professionals a clear, trustworthy picture of the organisation’s values and services, supporting the first placements into the new Birmingham facility.
