“By listening to the people who use and deliver Bupa’s wellness services, we uncovered what mattered and built a strategy that responded to those needs.

The challenge

Wellness means different things to different people. We needed to understand motivations and barriers across digital and in-person experiences for people using Bupa’s wellness services.

“I loved Lucy’s approach to helping us understand HCD and how it can help us solve the issues we’re facing.

–Bupa feedback

My contribution

I led research and co-design activities with customers, employees and partners, mapping experiences and developing opportunity areas.

We helped translate those insights into an engagement strategy and future service direction while supporting internal teams to apply human-centred design methods.
