Disaster Care Brand Colours
Primary Palette:
The primary brand colours should be used wherever the Disaster Care brand appears.
The primary green is the main colour and should be the starting point for all designs and materials. It provides consistency and helps people easily recognise the Disaster Care brand.
The secondary colour should be used to support the primary green. It can be used for highlights or backgrounds to add contrast and visual interest, but it should not replace the primary green.
