Boosting East London with @giffgaff to celebrate its latest data boost which offers new and existing members up to 3x more data.
With new research revealing almost nine in 10 Brits are in need of a selfācare boost (but often canāt justify the cost), giffgaff stepped in to help and we launched the giffgaff Boost Bar for one day only.
Guests were treated to free wellness experiences, from massage chairs and an oxygen masks to feelāgood food and drink, plus SIM cards on hand so visitors could get a digital data boost too.
New Year wellness tropes and unrealistic resolutions are tiresome, so the integrated marketing campaign we kicked off in 2026 for @stb_sg positioned Singapore as more than a holiday destination or two week reset, but an experience in a location that is designed to expand you.
Through a creator-led trip with @julesvonhep , @roxienafousi and @millygoldsmith , we captured authentic stories of clarity, creativity and renewed energy, landing at exactly the moment people were planning their next escape.
From social-first storytelling to podcast reflections, alongside new research revealing traditional self-improvement approaches like goal-setting are declining in popularity as Brits look to travel and nature to support their wellbeing and personal development, the campaign inspired UK audiences during a key booking window reframing Singapore, City in Nature, as the ultimate way to Upgrade Your Year.

Last week, Splendid hosted the latest instalment in its Round Table series, this time with @aardmananimations to explore the role of humour in modern brand communications.
Hosted by Splendid Creative Director Fran Langdon, who also heads up the agencyās new Bristol base, the closed door discussion asked a timely question: In a world defined by political uncertainty, economic pressure and emotional overload, should brands keep it real and serious - or bring light relief?
We brought together senior comms and marketing leaders to discuss how humour can be used with sensitivity and cultural awareness, drawing on the Aardman Effect, and the importance of choosing the right type of humour to connect with audiences and make messages more memorable.
Huge thanks to our brilliant contributors from Aardman Animations, and to the brands in the room for such an open, thoughtful conversation.
Look out for the next Splendid Round Tables coming soon. If youād like to be part of a future session, drop a comment below or get in touch!
All Aboard the Gain Train! Weāve had a lot of fun today (1st Aprilā¦) with @heathrowexpress and @puregymofficial , launching the UKās first ever āTraining Trainā.
Available from April 1st, passengers can get their pre-holiday workouts on track by transforming their 15-minute Heathrow Express journey into a high-energy fitness experience - all while travelling at 100mph.
Fancy a workout?
@batchelors_uk has been a British cupboard staple for decades and when they launched their new Masterbrand, we made sure the world knew about it š
Briefed and turned around in record time, Splendid assembled a talent lineup that brought the @outernetglobal Super Noodles takeover to life across social and press.
@itsbigzuu and @aitch brought the hype, @robcolfer captured the publicās reactions, @beccaeatseverything showed up as the ultimate Super Noodles superfan, and @setgyallery created bespoke nail art that looked good enough to eat.
An unmistakably Super Noodles moment for an iconic brand refresh.
