Care Pathway is a public health and social care professional development platform founded by Bimpe Kuti-Matekenya. The platform sits at the intersection of education, lived experience, and systems change producing content, resources, and conversations that help professionals think differently about how care is delivered. Bimpe also hosts The Peoples Healthcast, a podcast that brings together guests from across health, social care, and community development.
When Bimpe came to me, Care Pathway existed as an idea with a Webflow site in progress but no standalone digital infrastructure around it. The ask grew into three separate builds: a dedicated podcast page that could pull live episodes without manual updates, a resource store where professionals could download free infographics, and the main Webflow website tying it all together. Each had to feel like the same brand but live and function independently.
The constraint across all three was the same: no expensive subscription platforms, no recurring tool costs, and nothing that would require Bimpe to call a developer every time something needed updating.
The podcast page needed to stay current without Bimpe having to manually update anything. Every time a new episode goes live on Anchor, the page picks it up automatically.
I built a Netlify serverless function that fetches the RSS feed on the server side. This was necessary because Anchor's RSS endpoint blocks direct browser requests it rejects anything that doesn't send a proper User-Agent and Accept header. The function handles that, parses the XML, and returns clean JSON to the front end. Episodes render with title, date, duration, episode number, and an inline audio player. Cover art is pulled from the feed itself.
The sidebar shows Bimpe's host bio and photo, episode count, and direct links to Apple Podcasts and Spotify. The whole thing is a single HTML file with one Netlify function nothing to manage, nothing to pay for, and it updates itself every time a new episode drops.
The resource store needed to do two things at once: let visitors download free infographics and capture their email in the process. The download had to feel immediate and professional, not like a clunky opt-in wall.
I built a clean store interface that loads 7 infographic resources each covering a distinct topic in public health and social care, from tokenism in service user involvement to social care reform. Visitors click to download and enter their email first. That submission hits Formspree, which delivers the download link and simultaneously adds them to the Care Pathway newsletter list. No double opt-in friction, no third-party subscription pop-up tools.
Resource data is stored and managed on Supabase, giving Bimpe a proper backend she can update without touching the code. Stripe integration is already planned for when paid resources are ready to launch the store architecture is built to support it without a full rebuild.
The main Care Pathway website is built on Webflow using DM Sans type and a green and off-white palette designed to feel clinical without going cold. Screenshots coming once the site is live.
Care Pathway is the longest-running client relationship in my portfolio, and it shows what happens when design and development are treated as one discipline rather than two handoffs. I designed the system before I built it, which meant every page the main site, the podcast, the store reads as one product even though they live on different subdomains and use different stacks.
It also shows I can navigate technical constraints without expensive tools. The podcast page solves a real server-side problem (Anchor's RSS blocking) with a lightweight serverless function. The store solves a real business problem (email capture plus download) with Formspree and Supabase rather than a paid platform. The result is a full digital ecosystem that costs Bimpe nothing to run month to month and nothing to update day to day.
