(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /data/www/vccp-dev/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114Walkers<\/strong> has welcomed in the festive season with the launch of its brand-new Christmas advert. Launching today, Tuesday 7 November,<\/span> on online-video sharing platform <\/span>YouTube<\/span><\/a>, the Walkers Christmas ad focuses on landing an important mental wellbeing message.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Josephine Taylor, Senior Marketing Manager at Walkers comments:<\/b> \u201cThis Christmas, in partnership with Comic Relief we\u2019re proud to dedicate our advert to raising awareness of mental wellbeing, and we hope that the launch will raise lots of smiles and get the nation talking this Christmas.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
Mark Orbine, Executive Creative Director at VCCP London added:<\/b> \u201cOver the last year and a half in particular, the impact of the pandemic on mental wellbeing has been a huge concern. It\u2019s been brilliant to work with Walkers, a brand famous for its light-hearted advertising, working hard to facilitate important conversations surrounding mental wellbeing\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n
In addition to the ad, Walkers is also rolling out special fundraising QR codes on every packet of Walkers crisps across the festive period. When the QR code is scanned it will take crisp fans through to a \u2018smile-moji\u2019 filter, and whenever the filter is used, Walkers will donate 10p to Comic Relief*.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
The funds raised will go towards supporting mental wellbeing programmes in the UK, and form part of Walkers\u2019 and Comic Relief\u2019s work on <\/span>The Smiles Fund<\/span><\/a>**. The fund, started by Walkers and Comic Relief in 2021, aims to bring about positive change for individuals and communities through the power of humour, the arts and comedy. By supporting early-intervention and community-based initiatives that start conversations, forge positive social interactions, and build resilience, it aims to reduce the stigma around mental wellbeing, and reinforce the importance of people looking after their mental wellbeing.<\/span><\/p>\n
