Churchworks
Producing digital and printed communications that help bring churches and government together to affect change in our society.
THE CHALLENGE
During the Covid-19 pandemic a network of over 1,000 churches came together to work alongside local and national government to support their communities through vaccination rollouts and food distribution. As the pandemic ended, it was clear that there was a huge need for churches to work together across denominations to support the most vulnerable in communities. That’s how the ChurchWorks Commission was born.
The brand was somewhat put together in a hurry for a short-term need. It is now our challenge to formalise, establish and evolve the brand. Churchworks now host regular summit events, produce community-facing communications and deliver regular impact reports, documenting the monumental effect of investment.
THE SOLUTION
A key element of this project was to formalise brand hierarchy whilst giving Chruchworks a voice. Churchworks needs to appear as a product of Good Faith Partnership but have a strong sense of identity. Through simple rules and graphic devices we have resolved this throughout printed communications and online.
In Spring 2026 we have helped Churchworks launch their annual summit. This further extended the brand toolkit to include a “dot and pill” illustrative framework. This works when imagery is limited, creating bold graphic designs.
'A Place of Living'
The role of Heritage Buildings on Community Wellbeing in a 'Decade of Renewal'
We designed and delivered a report, funded by Historic England, illustrating the unique contribution of Warm Welcome Spaces located in heritage churches to community wellbeing. Chruchworks share why engaging in heritage is important for our future health and how communities and public services can make the most of our historic church buildings.
WHAT WE DELIVERED
To date we have delivered a number of public facing leaflets appearing in churches and community spaces across the UK, raising awareness of the campaign. Being a charitable organisation, impact and research projects are invaluable; we have delivered and designed a number of these for Churchworks, available in a digital format via the Churchworks website.
In February 2026 Churchworks will bring together leading figures from both the Church and Government, pooling knowledge, skills and resource for Social Good. As part of this event we have delivered printed and digital comms including: a core brand toolkit, invitations, banners, printed programme, displays and merchandise.
L&F are incredibly professional, yet personable. Nothing is ever too much trouble. They are very happy to take the lead, where required, or take instruction from our marketing team. To date they have delivered a number or reports for us, helping brand our Summit event and have generally added structure, clarity and personality to our brand. We very much see them as an extension of our team.
