Case Study: St Peter’s Hospice creates an accessible digital home with Silicon Reef’s SharePoint intranet

St Peter’s Hospice creates an accessible SharePoint intranet for 500+ employees and 1,600 volunteers with Silicon Reef

St Peter’s Hospice, a Bristol-based healthcare charity with over 500 employees and 1,600 volunteers, faced the challenge of an outdated and underused classic SharePoint intranet. The platform was difficult to navigate and failed to reliably reach their dispersed workforce, which included clinical, retail, warehouse, and remote staff with limited desktop access. They partnered with Silicon Reef to create a new, accessible digital home for news, policies, and tools within their existing Microsoft 365 environment.

Silicon Reef delivered a modern SharePoint Online intranet with Viva Connections and the Recite Me accessibility toolbar. The solution featured intuitive navigation, targeted content, and a mobile-responsive design, making information easier to find and access for all users. The new intranet successfully created a more connected and inclusive workplace, providing clear routes to vital information and handing over a maintainable platform that the St Peter’s team could confidently own and develop for the future.
