Speed Communications

We have been so excited to launch this campaign with our wonderful client Brabantia | B Corp Certified, and what better time with the clocks going back at the weekend and now that cosy season is here! Working with Brabantia, we’ve explored the feel-good feeling you get when everything in your home functions smoothly and looks great, with research revealing this feeling is similar to the rush you get when you achieve a goal or complete a workout at the gym. Forget endorphins, for Brabantia it’s all about ‘indoorphins’. Together with Clinical Psychologist Dr Angharad Rudkin, designer and interiors expert Reena Simon, consumer research, a tribe of influencer collaborations, rich visual content and a strategic approach to media relations we've created a multi-channel campaign that celebrates our homes. A couple days in and we’ve secured 10 nationals, 3 consumer pieces and 12 regional pieces - and we’re only just getting started! Learn more about our campaign here: https://lnkd.in/efzQkfQn and tell us below, which part of your home gives you an indoorphin rush and why?

Last week we launched Jakemans' Marvellous Monday campaign for Lanes Health that aimed to banish those #SundayScaries and embrace the first day of the week! To bring this campaign to life we secured expert commentary from Behavioural Neuroscientist and Leadership Psychologist, Dr Lynda Shaw who explained how engaging with colleagues on a Monday morning can help build a positive atmosphere. "To truly transform your Mondays, start by easing in with light, non-work conversations to build a positive atmosphere. Make time to connect with colleagues and celebrate small wins to set a confident, productive tone for the week."   Coverage results so far:  - 5 pieces of national coverage - 4 pieces of trade coverage  - 30 pieces of regional coverage Want to learn more about our health and wellbeing PR offer?

We recently launched PGL Travel’s new Thrive! programme, designed to help children build positive mental health habits. In a media landscape saturated with stories about children’s mental health struggles, we needed to find a unique angle. PGL wanted to promote Thrive! in a way that truly resonated, showing how activities like forest bathing, journaling, and yoga can equip kids with tools to manage their worries. 🌳🧘♀️ To uncover the scope of the issue, we commissioned consumer research revealing that half of all children are kept up at night by their worries. This powerful statistic became the focal point of our story, positioning Thrive! as a solution to a growing problem. The results: -         8 pieces of national coverage -         20 pieces of broadcast coverage -         154M+ media reach Check out some of the coverage here: https://lnkd.in/e3-yRqXS
