We recently created a set of promotional postcards for Basingstoke Counselling Service.

They wanted to appeal to a younger audience, encouraging them to come to counselling before a crisis point.

Research suggests that 92% of young people feel a stigma reaching out for counselling support and their knowledge of what counselling is, and how it can help, also prevents young people from getting the help they need.

It’s common for young people to just be feeling ‘meh’ with no real crisis point driving them into therapy.

So, with this knowledge, we created a series of postcards that spoke in language that mirrors those feelings of something just being off. No jargon, or fears of being ‘diagnosed’ with something.

The testimonials show the difference it can make and how good it can make you feel.

Going to counselling before a crisis point is an important step in creating healthy communities for the future - armed with resilience and coping mechanisms to deal with life’s challenges.

Little bit of fun for a Thursday afternoon. Took part in a challenge on LinkedIn to take any famous voice and market any product with that voice.

We've been really lucky to be interviewing some amazing NHS staff, past and present, to find out how they've been helping the vaccine trials that have been happening in Southampton.

Here, you can read retired GP Geoff's story about why he felt inspired to come out of retirement to help the COVID-19 vaccine efforts.

Just before Christmas it’s nice to share another project we’ve worked on recently.

Research has been on everyone’s mind recently with the coronavirus pandemic - so it was a pleasure to be involved in another issue of VISION - the National Institute for Health Research’s magazine.

We really enjoyed working on the website content for ISG Investigations & surveillance group.

We went for a direct tone of voice, no waffle or fluff. Getting you under the skin of what private investigation can do for you - yes, even everyday people like you.

Take a look at the smart, slick design from Good Design Works too.

We've just seen the latest issue of the NIHR Wessex's VISION magazine and it's looking great! Another fantastic project to be involved in and some really interesting insights into clinical research across the Wessex Region. You can take a look below 👇

It's always rewarding to see your content up! Take a look at a blog we helped create for RM Results (the people responsible for school league tables). We think e-marking is about to become even bigger post-pandemic...✍️
https://blog.rmresults.com/the-top-10-benefits-of-e-marking

Considering making the change from paper-based marking to digital can seem like a daunting prospect. Is it worth the disruption to implement e-marking and what could it mean for you and your organisation?

Let's talk about apathy. We can't be the only ones. We've realised that lately we've been feeling a little flat, a little passive and a little "meh" 😕

All the restrictions we've had in life, we've also been feeling in business - even though they weren't true. A "proper slump" you might call it 🌧

Thankfully, we connected with some super businesses through Autumn Live and their Tea & Toast networking that reminded us that a lot of what we are feeling is in our own heads! 🧠

And a lot of the restrictions we've been feeling in business...also in our head. Anyway, we figured that we can't be the only ones feeling like this.

Onwards and upwards! 🍀

Coronavirus Message

Our ethos has always been to offer meaningful and considerate copywriting services for businesses, organisations and individuals to communicate their messages. This has come even more into focus during the last month.

We will continue to offer our clients the same services, but we’re restricting face-to-face meetings for the immediate future as we feel really strongly that we need to do our bit to limit the spread of the virus and reduce the impact it’s having across the world.

We’re happy to hold virtual meetings or introductions via Skype and over the phone – let’s take this opportunity to stay connected but in a way that is thoughtful and measured.

We’re fortunate enough to work from home all the time, so as yet our business remains relatively unaffected by the emerging coronavirus situation – we’re some of the lucky ones.

If we all work together, we can make small changes to the way we work to minimise the impact on our businesses and have a big impact on those people who are at risk.

We are experiencing some issues with our emails at the moment. If you’ve been trying to get hold of us, and failing, a good old phone call is best until we can sort out the problem. Thanks for your patience!

Are the creative industries about to get a boost from AI? As more and more everyday tasks become automated, the power of people lies in our ability to be creative, not productive.

For millennia, our quest as humans has been to be more productive. But in 2020 this quest will become pointless.
