LIFT UP YOUR EVERYDAY: AN INFLUENCER-LED PUBLIC HEALTH CAMPAIGN FOR A PROFESSIONAL ORGANISATION
Occupational Therapists (OTs) help people to help themselves but their role and purpose in people’s recovery and wellbeing is often misunderstood. The Royal College of Occupational Therapists (RCOT) – the membership organisation for OTs – was looking to use its annual awareness raising week – Occupational Therapy Week – to increase the public’s understanding of occupational therapy.
The Challenge:
RCOT tasked Say with developing a campaign to provide the public with preventative health advice from OTs while at the same time engaging and involving more RCOT members in the campaign launch than the previous year’s OT Week activities.
Solution:
SAY developed RCOT’s first ever public health campaign: “Lift Up Your Everyday with Occupational Therapy (OT) Life Hacks.” The campaign mobilised RCOT’s 35,000 members as influencers to bring their expert advice to the nation in the form of ‘OT Life Hacks’: fun, simple, practical, achievable advice – delivered as short videos via free-to-access platforms that the public uses daily – to help people take small, positive steps to lift up their everyday lives at home, work, school and play.
AWARDED: Winner of two Communiqué Awards 2023 and a finalist in the 2023 Creative Moment Awards
