Introducing... Hatch Sport & Communities
17 years of work within the sports industry has brought us here.
Our new offering.
A new, dedicated team with experience of delivering excellence in the sports marketing sphere for some household name clients such as @bet365 , @TheHundred , @BritishCycling and @UK_Sport .
Headed up by Sports & Campaigns lead Billy Morton, bringing with him a wealth of experience in delivering high-profile sport and community campaigns, he will be working closely with agency Director’s Matt Peden and Victoria Tidmarsh, to bring the division to life.
Hatch Sport & Communities develops our 'Supercharged Storytelling' further with FANconnection, an all-agency approach to identifying, understanding, communicating and effectively engaging with fans.
Sport is in our DNA 🧬⚽️
World Cups. Governing bodies.
18 live fixtures streamed from the top of the Gherkin.
Why? Because sport starts, and ends, with the fan.
At Hatch, everything we do is fan-led.
Connecting sports, clubs, brands and communities through engagement that actually means something.
PR. Social. Content. Activation. Rights.
Driven by passion. Built for fans.
We are the Home of Fan Connection.

Fibre is booming. Gen Z are back on the booze. UPFs are still under scrutiny. And frozen is having a moment. ❄️
Our newly launched Food & Drink 2026 Trends Report takes a look at the behavioural shifts set to shape the UK food & drink sector this year – and how brands can stay ahead.
Using a mix of our agency expertise as well as brand-side insight, the report brings together what we’re seeing day-to-day working with food & drink brands, alongside insight from marketers who are navigating these shifts in real time.

We'll be dining out on this news for a while! 😍
We've been selected as a finalist for Agency of the Year by the @restmarkinnov Awards.

Getting in on a slice of the action. 🍕
We're delighted to announce we've been selected as the strategic partner to support the brand development and UK launch of @craft_pizza_uk , the brainchild of @freiberger.pizza
We have worked with Freiberger from the early stages of planning, developing the brand’s identity, packaging and creative assets, now being appointed on an ongoing basis to lead PR, influencer and content strategy, alongside organic and paid social management.
Head over to @craft_pizza_uk now to check out the hottest new brand to the freezer aisle 🤤
🍟 19 million shoppers have already abandoned ultra-processed foods, and a further 9 million are planning to do so 🍟
But despite over 75% of us being aware of UPFs, only 57% actually understand what it means…
The UPF debate is a bit of a minefield for brands, to put it lightly...
But our team pulled together a report to offer some food for thought – combining Hatch's specialist F&B expertise with perspectives from our wonderful contributors Daniel Avery (@THIS.UK ), Sophie Wright (@wearecherrypick ), Rhys Williams (@hippeas_snacks ), and Will Ainslie (@eatboundless ).
The report explores topics including:
👉 What’s driving change?
👉 Do consumers really understand the term “UPFs”?
👉 Ingredients vs processing – which matters most?
👉 What’s the impact on the F&B industry?
👉 How should brands respond?
