Feather Brooksbank holds on to HEBS account

Feather Brooksbank (FB) has been reappointed as the media planning

and buying agency for the Health Education Board for Scotland

(HEBS).



FB retained the £3m account after a three-year statutory review,

which included both media and creative. FB pitched alongside creative

agency The Bridge.



Andy Jones, managing director of FB in Glasgow, and head of TV Jan

Cerretti will maintain responsibility for the business.



Martin Raymond, head of public affairs at HEBS, said: "The key is that

the media and creative work together. Media is as important to us as the

creative executions. We reappointed FB as it understood our need to

constantly come up with fresh media solutions."



FB worked on the recent 'Stinx' campaign that aimed to discourage

youngsters from smoking. It ran a 60-second TV ad in the form of a girl

band pop video and reached number 49 in the UK music chart.



FB will continue to look at media to reach its key target audiences of

12- to 17- and 40- to 55-year-olds.



As well as the 'Stink' ads, HEBS launched a campaign this summer to make

people in Scotland aware of the risks of skin cancer. FB bought

ten-second TV ads, which were broadcast only after the evening weather

slot predicted sunshine.
