With temperatures dropping to -5 degrees, the homeless face their toughest winter yet. Yesterday we spotted an unfortunately placed poster above one of Manchester’s most notorious homeless spots, and had to do something about it. TBWA\MCR in partnership with DEPAUL, a charity that supports young homeless people locally and nationally, delivered a reactive poster to remind us to help those not looking forward to chilly winter nights. In fact, they're dreading it. Please share, or donate a warm bed for the night here: https://lnkd.in/ep4jWrdP

All season, we've been hammered with ads, offers and deals. And we all definitely need a break.

Meet our new Junior , James Sandom.

James, everyone. Everyone, James.

He's from the south, but uni life in means he's fishing to be an honorary northerner.

He once sung for members of the Royal family, as a chorister, despite having no musical talent.

And when he's not analysing data, he's strategically manoeuvring his way around the city's scene.

Any recommendations for him? 🍴

52% of women reject compliments, so we're on a mission to get the nation accepting them. Introducing our brand new campaign for JD Williams, with a curated AW19 collection designed to give women the fashion and confidence to accept every compliment that comes their way.

Lisa Nichols, ECD - “We want this audience to feel like ‘we see them’. In a world where they are all but invisible in marketing terms, they are crying out to be related to. By making the statement, ‘Compliments. You deserve them.’ We are very much saying ‘Ladies, we see you, and by the way, you look bloody good.”

MEET TOM HUGHES, COMMERCIAL EXECUTIVE.

Born in Wales, living in Wilmslow. You'll usually find Tom with a guitar in his hand - a Fender Telecaster if anyone’s interested. He once bought a car from a dodgy dude on the side of the road, 2 hours later the car blew up. Lesson learnt there. He’s also supported Van Morrison… well, his band played 5 hours before him but ssh.

MEET OLIVIA HUGHES, COMMERCIAL EXECUTIVE.

Olivia has swapped hiking and kayaking in America, for the world of finance. She's a vegan with a passion for all things green, and when she isn't keeping an eye on the bottom line she's working on her obsession for a dirty bassline. Just don't ask her to shot tequila, because she might just down the salt by accident. Seriously.
