About Harry's Rainbow

Practical, emotional and social support for bereaved children and families.

Harry's Rainbow provides practical, emotional and social support to children and young people who have experienced the death of a parent or sibling.

Through family events, activity days, mentoring, peer support and wellbeing programmes, the charity helps children understand they are not alone while creating positive memories during some of life's most difficult moments.

The impact they have on families across Milton Keynes is truly remarkable, and we are incredibly proud to support an organisation making such a lasting difference within our community.

A complete digital transformation

Our support has always been about far more than simply building a website.

Over the past decade, we have worked alongside the Harry's Rainbow team to create a connected, modern digital environment that helps the charity operate more efficiently while continuing to provide exceptional support to families.

Future proofing the charity

Digital systems that helped keep essential services running.

One of the clearest examples of why this investment mattered came during the COVID 19 pandemic.

Because Harry's Rainbow had already moved to cloud systems, the charity was able to continue operating almost immediately despite the challenges many organisations faced.

Staff could securely access files from anywhere. Microsoft 365 allowed the team to work together remotely. Their hosted telephone system ensured families could still make contact. Digital workflows and the CRM continued supporting daily operations without interruption.

Most importantly, the charity remained fully operational during one of the most challenging periods many families had ever experienced.

Secure file access The team could reach important documents from wherever they were working.
Remote collaboration Microsoft 365 helped staff keep working together when office based working was disrupted.
Family contact The hosted telephone system helped families continue reaching the charity.
Operational stability CRM and workflows kept important admin moving behind the scenes.

Award winning digital experience

A Silver Award for Best Website at the MK & Buckinghamshire SME Business Awards.

One of the proudest moments in our journey with Harry's Rainbow came when the charity's website received a Silver Award for Best Website at the MK & Buckinghamshire SME Business Awards.

This recognition covered much more than how the website looked. The judging considered:

User experience
Accessibility
Functionality
Ease of navigation
Overall effectiveness
How well the website supports the organisation and the people who rely on it

For a charity supporting bereaved children and families, creating an intuitive and accessible digital experience is incredibly important. During some of the most difficult moments in people's lives, families need to find the right information quickly, easily and without unnecessary barriers.

A great website has to do more than look good. It should help people when they need it most.

More than digital support

Our commitment has never stopped at technology.

Over the years, Rob, Founder of Plexus Creatives, has been proud to support the charity in many ways, not just through digital expertise, but by getting involved wherever help has been needed.

Supporting Harry's Rainbow has never been about putting our logo on a website. It is about rolling up our sleeves, getting involved and doing whatever we can to help the charity continue changing lives.

Why this matters

Supporting Harry's Rainbow is not something we do for recognition. It is something we do because we genuinely believe our skills can make a meaningful difference.

By donating our professional digital expertise, we are helping the charity invest more of its valuable funding where it belongs, supporting bereaved children, young people and their families.

For us, that is exactly what community is about.

Looking ahead

A partnership that continues to grow.

Technology never stands still, and neither does Harry's Rainbow. As the charity continues to expand its services and support more families, we will continue donating our time, expertise and digital support to ensure their systems, communications and online presence evolve alongside them.
