Our junior account manager Hannah spent the day at @moretownldn_ bringing two celebrations to life — International Women’s Day and World Book Day. 📚✨
From organising the activities and coordinating giveaways to hosting a “Blind Date with a Book”, Hannah made sure everything ran smoothly and that visitors could get involved throughout the day.
A brilliant way to bring the community together and celebrate both occasions 💜

Last week, the celebrations continued at @moretownldn_ with an International Women’s Day candle-making workshop for tenants.
The workshop brought members of the community together to create their own candles, offering a moment to slow down, connect and celebrate the incredible women within the Moretown community.
A simple activation designed to create meaningful moments for our client and their audience.

Happy International Women’s Day 💕
Over the weekend, to celebrate IWD, our account manager Claudia Lambert spoke with the @stchristophersplace community – from shoppers and visitors to customers – asking what this day means to them. The responses were thoughtful, inspiring and a reflection of the incredible women in our community.
A great example of how we help our clients bring moments like this to life through on the ground activations and content.
Here’s to the women we admire, support and celebrate every day.
