Our visual identity includes a logo, font, colours and imagery styles that work together, delivering our communications in a clear and reliable way for everyone.
HSE branding is instantly recognisable and associated with trust and confidence. Using the logo means patients and the public can easily identify communications from the HSE.
Using HSE branding we:
- standardise how our communications look and feel
- ensure consistency across our different services
- build trust and confidence with our patients, the public and stakeholders
When to use the visual identity guidelines
Use the guidelines in any new communications. This might include stationery, reports, emails and information materials. Existing communications, signage, uniforms or printed materials do not have to be changed to meet these guidelines.
