Thanks to all our clients and partners for another fantastic year creating impact through purpose. 💜
And a huge thank you to the Given team, who have worked so hard in 2024 - keeping cool heads and a positive mentality when things have been tough.
In 2025, we’ll be working more closely than ever with the rest of the @anthesisgroup , and pouring our energy into providing an even wider array of creative solutions.
But for now it’s time to rest and take a break. From everyone at Given, we wish you a joyful Christmas and wonderful 2025! 🎄

It’s very nearly a wrap on 2024... 🎬
It’s been a BIG year for us here at Given - and we’ve all been working super hard behind the scenes for some big changes taking place in early 2025. So it feels right to take a moment and reflect on our achievements over the past twelve months. 🙌
There are too many stand out moments 👏 and star colleagues 🤩 to mention, but swipe to see some of our highlights in 2024’s Given Wrapped!
Thank you to every single person who’s been part of our success this year! 🫶

Want to know how to make your sustainability reporting sparkle? ✨
For the past five years, we’ve had the privilege of partnering with @swarovski , crafting sustainability reports that beautifully capture their journey toward climate goals.

Sustainability reporting doesn't have to be dull.... 😴
This year, we've been privileged to work with a diverse range of clients across multiple sectors—each with unique challenges and opportunities.
Every time, we’ve delivered reports that are not only creative but also thoughtfully crafted to tell the story of their journey while letting the brand shine off the page.
Can you say the same about your organisation's report? If not, let's change that! ✨

Here at Given we use strategic thinking and creative design to help businesses report on their sustainability initiatives in engaging and relevant ways.
But what does that really mean? 🤔
To help answer that question, over the next few days we'll be showcasing our experience in Sustainability Reporting in all sorts of ways….
Each client’s report is as individual as they are and we’ll show how our reporting changes according to the needs of each business.
We’ve produced sustainability reports for businesses in a wide range of sectors, with many clients come back to us every year without fail.
If you'd like to discuss how we might be able to help you with your Sustainability Reporting needs or would just like to learn more, please get in touch at: [email protected].
Now, let’s go - there's so much work to do! 💪

*Trigger Warning*
We’re pleased to share our latest work with @avon_uk . It’s called #Lovestrong.
Across their lifetime, 1 in 3 women are subjected to physical or sexual violence by an intimate partner or non-partner.
Avon has run programmes for the past 20 years to support women and girls, and we’re proud to work with them on this ambitious campaign to help women spot the signs of abuse.
At the heart of the campaign launch is a film, educational hub and global partnership with @nomoreorg .
Thank you to our fantastic clients at Avon for the continued partnership.
Look out for more over the coming weeks.

Black Friday weekend is here. 🏴
And with @netflixuk 's documentary Buy Now! dropping last week, does it make you feel any differently about some of the crazy #discounting and #overconsumption taking place at this time of year?
And what does #BlackFriday mean if you are a #purpose led brand?
Do you follow the example of the likes of @patagonia , or @vestiaireco , with anti-Black Friday campaigns?
Or do something of social good like Google's #BlackOwnedFriday?
Will corporations and individuals view documentaries like ‘Buy Now!’ as a wake-up call to create deeper systemic change?
👆Head to the link in bio to read our latest blog as we discuss the problem of how to navigate Black Friday as a purpose-led company.

Have you heard of a Climate Cafe? 🌎
Last night, our brilliant Associate Strategy Director, Lucy Dixon, hosted Given's first ever Climate Cafe.
The idea is to create a space where people can talk openly about their feelings, concerns, anxieties around climate issues.
In a world where we are bombarded with news stories about #climatechange, it can often feel difficult to have these conversations in regular social circles. After all, no-one wants to be the Debbie Downer over a pint or at the dinner table. 😔
So the opportunity to talk in an inclusive and informal space about our concerns - but also where we see hope - felt really special and much-needed.
If this sounds like it could be for you, check where your nearest @climate.cafe is, or you can set up your own!

What an incredible night! 🏆
To be nominated for four @corpcommsmag awards was amazing and to win the award for Best Sustainability Report was a dream! 🙌
Congratulations to all the other winners - and particularly to Guys & St Thomas' Foundation, who beat us to the award for Best Embodiment of Purpose for the work on their new children's unit. That's a pretty tough act to surpass!
It was a fantastic evening catching up with clients and colleagues - and a special mention to the wonderful team at @johnlewis for the continued partnership!
Looking forwards to many more years creating award-winning work together!🤩
PS. thanks to Helen Dunne and everyone at CorpComms for putting on a wonderful do. 👏
