The Opportunity

MHF had a vast library of content and a diverse audience. They needed a platform that could serve millions of users while remaining easy to manage. Their digital brand identity also needed a refresh to create a consistent experience across touchpoints.
We engaged focus groups and target audiences to inform design decisions and architecture for the new website.

What We Built

A high-performance website prioritising accessibility, speed, and CMS authoring tools. AI-powered smart search enables users to find relevant resources quickly. Performance optimisations ensure fast load times and seamless browsing across all devices.

The Outcome

With over a million users accessing the site annually, MHF's website has become a vital resource for mental health support in Aotearoa. Hosting more than 2,000 unique pages, the site delivers a seamless experience ensuring individuals, whanau, and professionals can find the information they need.
RIVER took the complexity out of managing such a large project. Their guidance kept our team aligned, and it felt like they were part of our organisation from day one. Working together has been a joy.
