Overview

Founded by world-renowned percussionist Dame Evelyn Glennie, The Evelyn Glennie Foundation promotes active listening as a tool to improve communication and understanding across society. Previously represented only as a small feature within a wider business website, the Foundation needed a clearer identity and a dedicated digital platform. Granite 5 was appointed to create a cohesive brand and a user-focused website that communicates the Foundation’s mission, supports engagement, and provides a strong foundation for future growth. 

The Challenge

The Foundation required a digital presence that truly reflected its purpose. 

No standalone brand identity or dedicated website

Existing online presence did not fully convey the mission of active listening

Limited engagement and storytelling opportunities

Need for a visually compelling yet accessible platform

Requirement to inspire connection and understanding across diverse audiences
