Raising Awareness of Senior Living Accommodation
The PR team helped us to develop the novel and endearing AGEnda Generation Skills Swap campaign, which brought young and older people together to share their skills and talents during our annual Abbeyfield Week celebration. This creative idea embraced consumer research, celebrity endorsement, a YouTube film, dedicated blog site, media relations and tailored events. AGEnda was adopted by Abbeyfield homes throughout the UK, generating new connections in local communities and coverage in local, national and online media. A great campaign which we will run again.
