🏆 Mid-Sized Consultancy of the Year 2025 🏆

Last year, we made the biggest leap yet on our mission to be the defining employee-owned agency of our time, so we’re genuinely thrilled to see this recognised by the industry. Not only are we the first employee-owned agency to win this award, we’re also the first agency HQ-ed in the North to win too.

Our third year of employee ownership saw us welcome new brands, like , and to our roster, and deepen specialisms like public affairs, creative and AI. It saw us innovate with initiatives like our Regional Advocacy and Intelligence Unit, our AMEC-shortlisted LinkedIn Impact Score and invest in creativity.

And crucially, it saw us set up an Employee Ownership Board to give our people even more say in decision-making, share profits with our colleagues and deliver 1,400 hours of pro bono to causes that matter most to our people and the communities we call home.

Awards like this are always a reflection of our people and the clients who trust their brands with us. Thank you to all!

Arla LactoFREE set us a bold brief to communicate the limitless possibilities of taste AND wellness when it comes to their lactose free products.

So, our creative team decided to show the sky really is the limit with Arla LactoFREE by using their products to create Sky Shakes: tasty, healthy, lactose free milkshakes that look like the sky ☀️ 🌧️ 🌙

Served from a sky-reflecting air stream and underpinned by research that shows the compromises people feel they have to make when it comes to taste and wellness, we’ve had queues, gorgeous reviews and limitless coverage.
Thanks to our bold client and partners 💙

From ’s Lifeline scheme supporting families escaping domestic abuse, to the life-changing assistance dogs trained by - Lucy spent the day experiencing their impact first-hand.

With Lucy and the Lionesses soaring in to the Euro semi-finals - we’re proud to have worked with someone using her platform to champion the life-changing power of pets, as well as scoring penalties! Thanks to for helping make the collaboration possible.

Kids are leading the way when it comes to energy saving 🌍💡

So we went back to school - literally - with Olympic gold medallist Tom Daley to learn a few lessons from the children themselves.

Together with we’re showing how small, everyday habits at home can make a big difference in reducing energy use.

To celebrate Valentine’s Day, we wanted to share just a handful of the client campaigns we’ve loved working on recently ❤️

From creativity with a purpose, heartfelt storytelling and perfect creator partnerships, these campaigns remind us why we love what we do.

✨ For the launch of Food to Go we teamed up with incredible creators like to showcase how Food to Go fits into everyday routines. From busy office lifestyle to on-the-go refuels, this campaign was all about making nutrition easy and accessible.

✨ ’s ‘Thank you, pets’ campaign was designed to shine a light on just how important pets are to the nation’s physical and mental wellbeing with Lioness, . Our research uncovered them as the hidden support network of the UK – from assistance dogs providing vital care to those living with a disability, to simply being there when you need cheering up after a long day.

✨ Our ‘The Space Between’ campaign with saw us petitioning government to support third spaces, revealing the shocking decline through a mass freedom of information request and working with .beale to resurrect a third space in the worst affected area, using the power of paint.

We’re proud to be a Top 75 employer in The Social Mobility Foundation Employer Index, the leading authority on social mobility 🚀

This is our first time entering the Index, and as the only communications agency on the list - it reflects our need, and the need for the industry more broadly to build more accessible and representative workplaces.

We’ve invested in our school outreach, developed a paid internship programme and strengthened our partnerships with and to create more career pathways.

Huge kudos to everyone listed. We’d encourage everyone to get involved and start by reading this year’s Employer Index over on the website.

📢 New work klaxon 📢

Responding to the insight that one of the most requested items at food banks is fresh dairy but one in five food charities can’t offer it because of a lack of fridges, our team announced commitment to helping people access daily dairy by rolling out 100 sponsored-and-stocked fridges to food charities across the UK, in partnership with Fareshare.

To bring this important commitment to life, we also opened a Milk Bank ATM on a busy London high street, dispensing free, fresh dairy to all, and got our spokespeople and the charities that have benefitted talking to radio stations across the country to discuss the importance of access to fresh dairy 🥛

With coverage across The Sun, The Mirror, Express, Daily Star, Yahoo and a slew of regional and trade titles already, it’s safe to say we’ve brought this important campaign into public consciousness and supported Arla in their mission to enhance the accessibility of nutritious dairy products for communities across the UK.
