Divi implementation: Supporting a young person

Regular page built with Divi Visual Builder • Proposed page • Mock copy and clinical/organisational details require review.

  1. WordPress setup: Confirm the destination URL and whether this is a page, template or archived item.
  2. Layout: Build a regular Divi page. Use Text and Button modules for the introduction, then Blurb modules or Text links for each route.
  3. Sections in order: Listen to the young person → Work with school → Find family support.
  4. Page-specific setup: Use a related-content row to link this page back to its section hub. Add only links that help visitors take the next step.
  5. Before publishing: check keyboard order, mobile reflow, headings, links and content ownership. Use the global header and footer.

Shared header, footer and template setup

Page-specific Divi section: Use a narrow Text module with a semantic checklist and link each actionable item. Add it immediately after the hero.
