Medics4RareDiseases Launches New Branding
In September 2019 Medics4RareDiseases launched new branding with the help of healthcare communications agency emotive
Lucy McKay, CEO M4RD
We have always wanted to keep our brand approachable while at the same time honouring the seriousness and importance of our mission. We believe our new brand will help us to do this
The new Medics4RareDiseases logo maintains the core zebra pattern, but used in a new way. Its simplicity allows for easy recognition, as well as making it far easier to implement across a broad range of communication channels. We also have fantastic new social media icons and slightly different colours – our red is now more subtle, sleek and less ‘shouty’.

This sophisticated new look reflects our status as a now well-established organisation with many years of experience driving an attitude change towards rare diseases amongst medics.
