Heart attack symptoms awareness campaign

billboard/posters/postcards/text message reminders
Watch your own heart attack.
Sunday Aug 10th 9:17PM ITV1
The most important two minutes of TV you’ll ever see.

Problem: To build awareness of the variety of symptoms of a heart attack and prompt swift action to save the 245 people that die every day.

Solution: We invited people in the UK to ‘watch their own heart attack’. What they saw was a one-off two minute TV event, taking an entire ad break (media first). Invitations to watch were sent out on TV, posters, print, leaflets, SMS, beer mats, DM to doctors and PR.

Result: 6.5 million people watched the event. Viewing figures went up during ad break. 80% of target audience understood the variety of heart attack symptoms. Lives were saved.
