The C Stands for Children uses UNICEF’s household name as part of the creative device, replacing the C with striking images of children from across the world that have been supported by the charity. Mark Hunter, Chief Creative Officer Accomplice London, said:  > “The campaign is bold and strikingly simple, and designed to connect more people > than ever before to UNICEF’s core mission to help children.” The campaign launched by taking the spotlight at Outernet London on the breath taking Now Building in the heart of London’s West End, and runs across Print publications including The Telegraph, The Times, and The Guardian. It is also featuring in Out of Home advertising across the UK and is live across Meta and Twitter and a range of programmatic platforms from October through to December. UNICEF UK partners will be amplifying the campaign, with an advert featuring in EasyJet’s inflight magazine on UK and EU flights, reaching an estimated 8.8mn customers. BT will also be broadcasting campaign messaging on the iconic BT Tower on key dates throughout the campaign period, while brand adverts will appear in matchday programmes during the Rugby League World Cup. --- ![](https://wfay6x.infiniteuploads.cloud/2022/11/Melanoma-Fund-Image.jpeg) #### Melanoma Fund appoints SQN to boost sports-focused PR efforts The [Melanoma Fund ](https://www.melanoma-fund.co.uk/)has recruited the services of Henley-based agency [SQN](https://sqn.agency/) to boost its sport-focused PR efforts.

Jonathan Davies founded the online tribute charity in memory of his brother Philip, who died as a result of taking drugs in 1995, when he was in his final year at university. MuchLoved works in partnership with hundreds of charities and nearly 2,000 funeral director branches, and there are now 160 new tribute websites being created and over 50,000 website visitors every day. Davies said: > “I was keen to create an online memorial to Phil, a legacy that could show many > of his happy years and make it easy for his school and university friends to view, > make contact and maybe add pictures and thoughts of their own. I did some research > but couldn’t find an appropriate service available. That’s when I first had the > idea for MuchLoved.” MuchLoved became a registered charity in 2007. It enables people to create a personalised, and free online tribute site in memory of their loved one where they can share memories, thoughts and stories with families and friends as well as light candles, add music, photos and videos. They can also collect fundraising donations for a special charity or project in their name, organise events, and celebrate anniversaries. * **[CharityJob donates £100K to small charities, & other agency news](https://fundraising.co.uk/2022/11/28/charityjob-donates-100k-to-small-charities-other-agency-news/)**( 28 November 2022) * **[Who’s working with who: 4 snippets of agency & supplier news](https://fundraising.co.uk/2023/02/09/whos-working-with-who-4-snippets-of-agency-supplier-news/)**( 9 February 2023) * **[6 snippets of agency & supplier news](https://fundraising.co.uk/2023/03/09/6-snippets-of-agency-supplier-news/)**( 9 March 2023)
