How do you like them apples?

Lost Orchards is on a mission to prove Scotland can rival the West Country when it comes to c***r.

The Scottish c***r maker is expanding its orchards near Dundee and planting thousands of new apple trees as part of a long-term plan to help revive commercial c***r production in Scotland.

And it’s not just talk.

Before the brand had even officially launched, Lost Orchards’ Pure Apple C***r won gold at the International C***r Awards, beating major global brands in the Modern C***r category.

Using only Scottish-grown apples rather than imported concentrate, the business is backing local growers and making a case for c***r with real provenance, traceability and Scottish roots.

To launch On the Ball Academy’s new Fast 3s initiative we worked with Jackie McNamara and Simon Donelly to recreate a famous picture from before the 1998 World Cup - the last time Scotland made the finals.

Both pics were by our pal Jeff Holmes.

Ex-pro Ryan Docherty ran free and subsidised football sessions across Glasgow during the World Cup and Commonwealth Games summer, delivering free football for those who need it.

Docherty, who came through the youth ranks at Celtic under Tommy Burns alongside Aiden McGeady and Charlie Mulgrew, believes the structure of youth football in Scotland is one of the biggest barriers to youngsters staying in the game. He created the academy partly in response to what he describes as the growing ‘pay to play’ culture around youth football.

He said: “We’ve taken the fun out of football for kids. Too much structure, too early. Too much focus on coaching before they’ve had a chance to just play. I felt that myself. I was over-coached at times and lost some of that freedom. The best football I ever played was on the street with my friends.

“We know there’s going to be huge excitement around football this summer, but for a lot of families, access to the game isn’t as simple as it should be. Costs add up – coaching, travel, kit – and more and more kids are being priced out. That’s something we as a nation have to address.”

The story went across the media, including The Daily Record, The Sun, Glasgow Times, The Herald and more.

Happy eighth birthday to our friends at 🍻

And what a story they have to tell.

Eight years ago, Steven Smith-Hay was brewing b**r in his kitchen. Today, Vault City is one of Scotland’s biggest brewing success stories and THE pioneer of fruit-forward b**r.

Its ambition and belief is inspiring: it recently moved into a state-of-the-art production facility at BioCampus in the Midlothian Science Zone, giving it the capacity to produce more than 10 million litres of b**r each year.

Vault City now supplies more than 5,000 UK supermarkets and exports to 26 countries, with export sales increasing by 62% year on year. Its b**rs have also become a mainstay in pubs and bars across the country.

They never stand still, releasing at least three new flavours every fortnight and uses more than 200,000kg of Scottish-sourced strawberries, raspberries and other fruits each year.

The quality and that commitment to provenance as why they've earned a trio of Great Taste Awards, including a coveted three-star and two two-star awards.

It has achieved all of this while doing the right thing for its people, operating a four-day working week and committing to paying every employee at least the London Living Wage.

We are very lucky to work with businesses that inspire us, do things differently and have a genuinely brilliant story to tell - all while up for doing lots of fun things! Thanks to the team for trusting us to tell their story.

“I thought it was game over.”

After a devastating skiing accident left him paralysed from the chest down, Edinburgh businessman Stewart Mackay feared the active life he loved was over. Six years on, he’s found a renewed sense of purpose, competition and community through the game of bridge.

A powerful story about finding new passions when life takes an unexpected turn.

PRmoment Awards 🏆🏆

It was double trouble in Manchester as Eilidh and Kelan made a flying visit to Manchester last week, where they picked up not one but two PRMoment awards for our work on The Maclean Brothers Pacific Row which raised £1M for charity.

🏆Media Relations Campaign of the Year
🏆Integrated Campaign of the Year

This is a massive moment for us and we’re ever so proud of winning these awards for a campaign that took tremendous effort (not quite as much as rowing 9,000 miles across an ocean, but a tremendous effort nonetheless).

The gongs are fantastic and a testament to the whole team. What hits most, however, is the fact that the work has helped to create real impact, bringing safe, clean water for life to 40,000 people living in Madagascar.

Thanks to those marvellous Maclean brothers for trusting us to tell their story, and to everyone who helped with the campaign along the way.

According to City AM, Harry Styles would feel right at home at The Social Hub Rome.

“The bar is buzzing as creatives tap away on laptops; a packed programme of events and workshops keeps the energy going into the evening. It attracts the same crowd Styles moves among: unpretentious, international and creatively expressive.”

Time to launch a Watermelon Sugar cocktail?
