After a website redesign and rebuild, the Royal British Legion faced significant challenges, including a drop in SEO rankings, a decline in organic traffic, and reduced online donations. The organisation needed a robust UX strategy to address these issues and better serve their diverse audience, including benefactors, ex-servicemen and women, fundraisers, and donors.
