We were super proud to support Volvo Car UK as the Official Automotive Partner of the Rolling Stone UK Awards – the ultimate celebration of rock and roll.

A fleet of luxurious Volvo XC90s chauffeured winners, presenters, and VIP guests to the iconic Roundhouse, setting the tone for an unforgettable evening.

Inside the venue, the award-winning Volvo EX90 took centre stage, showcasing cutting-edge safety technology and Volvo’s vision for the future.

It was a night to remember, honouring the very best in music with a touch of automotive excellence.

We were delighted to support Volvo Car UK in hosting the first UK media drives for the fully electric Volvo EX90 – a car that redefines innovation, safety, and sustainability.

The event offered lifestyle and automotive journalists a thoughtfully curated experience, featuring a luxury overnight stay and dynamic test drives designed to showcase the EX90’s groundbreaking technology and features.

Guests were warmly welcomed to the serene Monkey Island Estate, a private island on the River Thames, where they enjoyed a locally sourced, seasonal dining experience and a relaxing overnight retreat.

The following day, guests were immersed in the Volvo brand story with an inspiring presentation and test drives at Amber Lakes - a breathtaking lakeside setting.

The event received fantastic feedback from media attendees, and we couldn’t be prouder of the collaboration with our client and suppliers to craft such a memorable experience.

A festive showcase at Blenheim Palace!

Not even Storm Darragh could dampen the magic as we hosted a stunning event earlier this month at the iconic Blenheim Palace.

As part of the festive celebrations, we proudly showcased the Range Rover Evoque, inviting guests to experience its elegance in a relaxed and welcoming setting. Visitors connected with our product specialists, sipped on warming drinks, and indulged in festive treats.

The creative treatment perfectly captured the holiday spirit, with guests enjoying the illuminated light trail, skating rink, and bustling Christmas Market – all enhanced by the Evoque’s unmistakable charm.

Thank you to Branchout Productions for their excellent lighting design that brought the event to life.

It’s not every day you get to collaborate with three iconic brands at once!

We were incredibly proud to support Volvo Car UK with their recent launch event at the legendary Abbey Road Studios together with Bowers & Wilkins and Abbey Road Studios.

Global media and content creators got an exclusive first look at the new Abbey Road Studios Mode, debuting in the Volvo EX90.

To celebrate our 30th year in business, we took on the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge to raise vital funds for Stroke Association.

The route took us across 24 miles and three mountains, and we managed to finish in 11hrs and 53minutes – just under the 12hour target!

It was a very long day, starting with registration at 05:30 in the dark and rain. But the sun eventually came out and we were thrilled by the beautiful scenery, despite the sore knees. 15 of us started and 10 of us finished, which gives you an idea of how hard it was!

We're grateful to the amazing guides at Three Peaks Challenge who kept us all safe and on track, and we'd like to sincerely thank all the clients, suppliers, friends and family who sponsored us.

In total we’ve raised £6,696.42 for Stroke Association which will help fund vital research and rebuild more lives after stroke.

We're just one month away from tackling the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge: a 12 hour, 24-mile hike that includes 1,585m of ascent!

We've been training hard and raising essential funds for Stroke Association - a charity we have a particular affinity with.

Why Support Stroke Association?
• Every five minutes, someone in the UK suffers a stroke—a serious, life-threatening condition that occurs when blood flow to part of the brain is cut off.

• Surprisingly, one in three stroke victims is of working age.

• Stress, a major stroke risk factor, is prevalent in fast-paced, high-pressure industries like the live event sector. That’s why we’re committed to using our platform to raise awareness and make a difference.

• When stroke hits, a part of the brain shuts down—and so does a part of you. Life changes in an instant, and recovery is tough, but the brain has the incredible ability to adapt.

• Stroke Association helps survivors rebuild their lives, offering specialist support and driving groundbreaking research that could one day save lives.

We’ve set ourselves a fundraising goal of £6,000, so every donation no matter how small is greatly appreciated!

You can donate now via our Just Giving page:

Thank you for helping us to rebuild more lives after stroke.

Arts on the Beach is a celebration of creativity, community, imagination and ocean culture.

Taking place at Watergate Bay in Cornwall, the weekend saw 4,000 festival-goers dance, play and get stuck into two days of sea themed, sustainably-minded festivities.

We loved supporting our client with a brand activation that included live illustrations and a custom-built doggy hydration station – essential for a hot weekend.

Entertainment included a 13-foot roaming puppet and 60-foot whale theatre!

INTRODUCING: next in our ‘meet the team’ series is the dynamic duo Marian and Martin.

Not only do they both work in our IT department, but they are both from Bulgaria, so we asked them to tell us a little more about their homeland. Trigger warning: contains some terrible Bulgarian singing/dancing.

Q: What is the best thing about Bulgaria?
Q: Favourite Bulgarian recipe?
Q: Worst thing about Bulgaria?
Q: Tell us something we don’t know about Bulgaria.
Q: Any Bulgarian traditions?
Q: Do you know the Bulgarian national anthem?
Q: Can you show us a traditional Bulgarian dance?

As we continue to celebrate our 30th birthday year, we’re delighted to be supporting our local primary school with their Earth Day initiative.

We consulted with the children’s Eco Council at Shenington Primary School to decide on the best way to support their sustainability goals.

The children shared a list of items that would make a big difference to their Forest School and Gardening Club, and we were very happy to donate them:
• A water butt and adapters for a downpipe
• Vegetable seeds for corn, tomatoes and pumpkins
• Tarpaulins for den building
• Wildflower seeds

We are thrilled to be ‘sowing seeds’ and helping our community grow, and look forward to seeing the results!
