Emma Watts and Ellie Woodcock Jones were awarded Bronze for their project ‘Creative Block’ in the Impact category. Their campaign demonstrates a world without the creative arts sector and highlights the need for better funding and support for creatives.
Olivia Knights is Highly Commended for their project ‘Sidelined’ in the Equality and Justice category. The campaign aims to help the LGBTQ+ community feel more welcome in football.
Charlotte Pooley is Highly Commended for their project ‘The Real Threat’ in the Impact category. The campaign sets out to raise awareness of the NHS funding gap and how public spending can be redistributed.
Lauren Kerr is Highley Commended for their project ‘Read My Lips’ in the Health, Wellbeing and Disability category. The typographic campaign brings to light the factors that can make lip reading difficult for people with a hearing impairment.
BA (Hons) Graphic Design winners:
Lois Brandon was awarded Gold for their project ‘Just A Number’ in the Health, Wellbeing and Disability category. This campaign addresses the need for better mental health support for the older generation to tackle loneliness and frailty by providing more sporting opportunity in local communities.
Emma Smith and Isabella Atkinson won Silver for their project ‘Heineken Turf War’ in the Community category. The campaign encourages people to create and build their own community beer gardens to bring about more green spaces in cities.
Magdalena Horos won Silver for their project ‘La Mela Rosa’ in the Climate Crisis category. Their project aims to help rebuild the communities that were affected by the 2017 earthquake which took place in the Le Marche Region where the orchard for the pink apple liqueur survived and continues to grow: a symbol of resilience.
Emma Smith was awarded Bronze for their project ‘Seismic’ in the War and Crisis category. Seismic, an Italian water brand, finances research into the hydro-chemical impact of seismic activity on groundwater aquifers. This breakthrough could potentially support the reduction in loss of life, damage to the environment and displacement of communities from earthquakes.
