About us
We're a creative agency dedicated to telling the truth and telling it well. A Truth Well Told - our guiding principle since 1912 - underpins everything we do. It ensures everyone has the opportunity to tell their own truths to play a meaningful role in the agency. And it allows us to do what we do best: help brands earn a meaningful role in people’s lives. We’ve delivered joy to the nation with Snoop Dogg for Just Eat and Kevin the Carrot for Aldi, showed the audience “That’s the eBay Way”, unearthed ‘The Gender Pain Gap’ for Reckitt, helped L’Oréal show people that “They’re Worth It” and put a “Priceless” tag on Mastercard. Proudly part of McCann Worldgroup. #ATruthWellTold A peek into our world: instagram.com/mccannlondon

🔥👏 Our new CCO, Lynsey Atkin, killing it on stage at Campaign UK LIVE yesterday, on only day two of her new chapter with us at McCann London! 👏🔥 Lynsey joined Richard Brim, Nadja Lossgott and Maisie McCabe on stage to discuss whether creative work is becoming too safe and boring. Read more about their panel discussion here: https://lnkd.in/ev7JNNxj Touching on everything from "the boring tax" to the feeling of cracking a problem in a group of people, here are some key takeaways: ⭐️ Agency and marketer relationships should feel like the two are jumping in feet-first, “skipping school together” and seeing whether they can get away with it 🙏 we love this, Lynsey Atkin! ⭐️ There should be a “North Star” that media agencies and creative agencies are working towards at all times. Collaboration between the two is key. ⭐️ Did you know that boring work needs an additional £10m in media spend to have the same impact? 🤯 If that's not a rallying call to do better we don't know what is... ⭐️ Having creative leaders outside of a creative department is hugely important. We think this presents such an exciting opportunity for everyone across the agency. Thank you for sharing your thoughts & inspiring us all, Lynsey Atkin ✨ #McCanners #TruthWellTold McCann Worldgroup ❤️ Campaign UK

❤️💊 See My Pain 💊❤️ Did you know that one in two women experience pain dismissal? In an incredible activation this weekend with Reckitt, we unveiled a giant Nurofen pill pack in the heart of Newcastle, amplifying the voices of women whose pain has been dismissed for far too long. The stories shared were raw, emotional, and deeply impactful, reminding us all of the importance of truly seeing and hearing women’s pain. We know that creativity can be a powerful tool for social change. Our larger-than-life activation, with its immersive storytelling, made it impossible to ignore the biases that affect women’s health care. Together with Reckitt and our amazing collaborators at IPG's Momentum Worldwide and Chiswick Scenery Company, we’re not just raising awareness, we’re fighting for change.

And let’s change the narrative. 💊💪 ❤️ Reckitt #TruthWellTold #McCaners #SeeMyPain #GenderPainGap McCann Worldgroup

🔥💯We've got two "Faces To Watch" in the house! 💯🔥 Our brilliant Creatives at McCann London, Peniel Gebreselassie and Eleanor Weitzer, have been chosen by Campaign UK for this year's Faces To Watch list. A brilliant list full of ambitious people, with a hunger to make the best work, drive the industry forward, and inspire the next generation of talent. ⭐️ It is no surprise at all that Pen & El are on this list ⭐️ They are a female creative team with a passion for innovation and inclusivity. Their perspectives come from their Ethiopian and northern working-class heritage. Breaking into advertising through their non-traditional routes has taken belief that their perspectives are not only relevant but valuable. This has carried them through from winning heavyweight pitches to creating viral campaigns for the likes of #Xbox. Read more about their thoughts on everything from how we should encourage teenagers to enter the industry to where they want to be in five years via the link here: https://lnkd.in/e7XgzmUv Congratulations Pen & El, time to celebrate! 👏🥇 #FacesToWatch #McCanners #TruthWellTold McCann Worldgroup

Ahead of #LondonFashionWeek, our social & influencer experts at McCann Content Studios London have introduced a filthy clothing collection "O'Dour Couture" for Dettol 😵💫👗😷 A spoof clothing collection from the fictional "House of Déttol," each item has been inspired by everyday bacteria 🦠 From the "Swea-T-Shirt," a garment marinated in rush-hour perspiration, to the "Little Black Death," a day-to-night staple infested in thick black dirt, each item tells a story of odour and germs that linger long after washing. Bianca Eglinton, Creative Director at McCann Content Studios London said, "Our goal was to take a bold step into the world of high fashion, using satire to make Dettol culturally relevant and unforgettable. We wanted to push boundaries and create something that’s truly unique for the category. Fashion and hygiene are two worlds that don’t often collide, but with “O'Dour Couture”, we’ve brought them together in a way that’s both fun and informative. It’s about more than just killing germs; it’s about elevating the conversation around laundry care and making it as talkable and stylish as the clothes we wear.” 💥👕Our creative is out now, live across London!👖💥 Read more about our creative idea here: https://lnkd.in/eknnghUe Thank you to Campaign UK's Charlotte Rawlings & Alessandra Scotto di Santolo 🙏 💚 Dettol, Reckitt #TruthWellTold #McCanners #McCannContentStudios McCann Worldgroup
