Borstkankervereniging Nederland
A new Drupal 8 platform with a powerful story
Borstkankervereniging Nederland is a Dutch organization for everyone with breast cancer and their loved ones. Women or men, young or old. They are here for everyone. To make sure you have access to good healthcare. To answer your questions. To support you.
Borstkankervereniging Nederland has been a client of Youwe for over 10 years now. Last summer, there was a change in how the Borstkankervereniging wanted to present themselves, and of course, that also needed changes on their Drupal 7 websites. After trying several simple solutions the Drupal team stepped up and came up with a long-term solution. Instead of patching up the Drupal 7 site, the team came up with a plan for a new specifically fitted solution for the new way of working which would help the Borstkankervereniging Nederland out tremendously.
Now the platform is really a tool the Borstkankervereniging Nederland can use to help their visitors personally and above all emotionally
Our solution
A future-proof Drupal 8 platform
When the plan was formulated it was already clear that within 1,5 years the site should be completely rebuilt in Drupal 8 to be safe for the future as Drupal 7 was end-of-life. Because the budget was limited we did two things. First, Youwe offered to do a research and a design phase without any charges and we also made sure we would build the new platform in an up-to-date Drupal 8 platform.
A look and feel to support their mission
The Borstkankervereniging Nederland had the wish to create a less medical oriented website and more a website which is based on a community. So people can get together and share their stories. Because they now have a new website we are sure that future investments are long-term solutions and easy to implement. We used a Drupal 8 installation profile to keep within the budget that was limited. Now the organization can work in the way they want to and have a new look and feel for their website.
Minimal Viable Product
Besides the new Drupal 8 platform, we helped with the re-design and held several workshops with the whole team of Borstkankervereniging Nederland to get the content plan and the important requirements clear. With that information, we build a Minimal Viable Product and made a plan to be able to keep some of the legacy systems/sites available via our server.
