Design Brief
I’ve been asked to create a website for ‘Lancashire Constabulary’ that would promote and make
awareness of hate crime online and in this region. Lancashire Constabulary asked to specifically
outline the hate crime related to disability and race in the website. The intended output for this
website should be:
A Working website with available resources
Increase in knowledge and thought when it comes to online activity and potential outcomes
Increase in referrals to the appropriate authorities
Target Audience
The main target audience are teens and young adults aged between 16-18, that would be seeking
help related to hate crime. The website would provide them with simple ways of how you can
contact the right authorities.
User requirements
An easy to use and understand website that is targeted for young people (16-18).
This site should include, visual, auditory and documented information with appropriate
colour scheme and language style
The website should include information that is easy to access that is user friendly regarding
hate crime related to disability and race. It should be presented in a way that is not
judgmental or bias.
Purpose
The website should an educational reference document and not a platform to report hate crime. It
will act more in a way of being a signpost to official services such as Police, Crimestoppers etc.
Another purpose of this website is to make the users aware of their online activity and how this
could constitute a criminal offence and impact long term employment plans.
