Today marks the start of Rail Wellbeing Live - three days of talks, content and wellbeing sessions specifically aimed at those working in the rail industry 🚆 As rail industry specialists, we recognise that the health of our country’s railways depends on the health of the 240,000 colleagues who keep the industry moving. Rail Wellbeing Live was set-up in 2020 with a simple mission - to improve the health and wellbeing of everyone who works in rail. It's great to see the event taking place for another year, bringing together many people from across the industry - all committed to finding out how they can become fitter and more resilient as individuals and organisations, both now and in the future.

As an accredited Living Wage Foundation Employer, we’re particularly excited about this Living Wage Week - which starts today! Everyone deserves pay that is fair and helps with the rising cost of living. So at Eleven, we're taking a step beyond and supporting our team by paying a Real Living Wage 🙌 Incidentally, we were the ones who got to design this year's #LWW tookit - let us know what you think of it! #eleven #purposedriven #poweredbypurpose #wholepicturethinking #creativeagency #strategyagency #creative #strategy #livingwage #reallivingwage #livingwageweek #livingwageemployer

Imagine this: You ask AI to design a campaign about fostering. You type in some basic keywords – "children", "care", "love" – and boom, out pops a visual of a smiling family holding hands in a park, golden sunlight streaming down. It’s nice, but it’s also generic, almost to the point of being sterile. AI’s problem is it lacks both lived experience and emotional intelligence. It doesn’t understand the deep, emotional layers behind the stories we need to tell. Just in case you missed it last week, our latest blog explains why creative AI would be lost without human intervention... #elevenagency #purposedriven #poweredbypurpose #wholepicturethinking #creativeagency #strategyagency #creativeAI #ai #creativeblog #aiblog

Ever walked away from a campaign review thinking, “We could’ve done more…”? You’re not alone. Too many great ideas get lost in translation between teams and creative agencies. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Join us on November 14th for our upcoming webinar ‘Getting the most out of your creative agency’, where we’ll share the secret sauce for turning good partnerships into great ones. Free to attend and open to all - link to register here: https://hubs.li/Q02W7Lyf0 #elevenagency #purposedriven #poweredbypurpose #wholepicturethinking #webinar #segments #creativeagency #strategyagency #creativecollaboration #collaborativepartnership #creativepartnership

Happy Halloween 🎃 In honour of spooky season, we're lifting the curtain on what it's like to work in a haunted chapel... #elevenagency #creativeagency #strategyagency #chapel #halloween #agencylife #happyhalloween #creativeagencylife #behindthescenes

We had our October 360° event yesterday, courtesy of Eleven's Head of Creative Dan M. In this workshop, Dan gave us the practical skills to master capturing and creating impactful social content, showed us how to use in-platform tools and addressed some common fears around creating content. In a world where content is king, we all have the power to be influencers in our own communities, so we recognise just how important it is that everyone at Eleven is equipped with the right knowledge and skills. This is so we can shine a spotlight not just on our agency but on the fantastic organisations we work with 👏 Thanks again Dan for a truly great session! #elevenagency #poweredbypurpose #purposedriven #wholepicturethinking #contentcreation #creativeagency #strategyagency #teamevent #teamsocial #behindthescenes #upskilling #socialmedia

We recently worked with Now Foster to launch a campaign to recruit weekend foster carers. This flexible model opens doors for those who can't commit to full-time fostering but still want to make a significant impact. Not wanting to be restricted by the overly-staged nature of stock photography, we used AI to generate photorealistic images and retouched these to create original campaign imagery that captured what it truly means to be a weekend foster carer. The campaign attracted a staggering 400 sign-ups in the first month - proving that AI, paired with creative know-how, was absolutely the right approach. #elevenagency #purposedriven #poweredbypurpose #wholepicturethinking #creativeagency #strategyagency #nowfoster #weekendfostering #fostercarers #fostercarerrecruitment #fostering

Let's talk about AI. Although it's been around for years, new generative tools on the scene make AI an exciting addition to your creative toolbox - it's innovative, and yes, it's incredibly useful. But let's get one thing straight: AI is clever, but it isn't the whole picture. In our latest blog, Dan M. explains why creative AI is only as good as the human using it (link in comments) #elevenagency #purposedriven #poweredbypurpose #wholepicturethinking #creativeagency #strategyagency #creativeAI #ai #creativeblog #aiblog

It was a pleasure to deliver our second care leavers workshop for Cheshire East Council this morning! The Council runs a 12-week personal development programme specifically for care leavers called ‘Venture with Confidence’. Earlier this year, we joined forces with them and delivered a creative workshop as part of the programme. It was great to be back again today, watching the incredible young people express themselves creatively and build their confidence 🙌 #elevenagency #purposedriven #poweredbypurpose #creativeagency #strategyagency #cheshireeast #venturewithconfidence #careleavers #fostercare #personaldevelopment

The King's Trust recently unveiled its new brand, and we love it! The logo was created pro-bono by renowned designer and former beneficiary of the Trust, James Sommerville OBE - an incredible full-circle moment and opportunity to celebrate the charity's wonderful history and exciting future. We're so excited to see what comes next for the Trust as it works towards its 50th anniversary in 2026 👏
