New-business rankings: creative accounts

Reviews

NHS Blood and Transplant has issued a brief for creative, media and PR for its blood and organ donation activity. The aim of the work will be to encourage people to donate to help save or improve lives. It will build on current campaigns "Save a life. Give blood" and "Yes I donate. Organ Donation".

The tender is open to agencies on the government’s roster. It is going through the Crown Commercial Service, and is being handled by Ceri Rose, assistant director for digital and marketing at NHS Blood and Transplant. A number of agencies currently work on the account, including 23red and Engine, which created the award-winning "Missing type" work for blood donation.
