Our 2025 Story: From Big Ideas to Bigger Impact

Every year tells a story. For Public Sector Media, 2025 was a chapter filled with growth, creativity, and campaigns that truly mattered. Here’s how it unfolded…

It Started with Three
Back in January, we were a small team with big ambitions. Just three people, a shared vision, and a determination to make a difference. Fast forward to December, and we’re now 11 strong, with digital and creative services in-house. That growth didn’t happen overnight – it came from trust, hard work, and the incredible clients who believed in us.

Moments That Made Us Proud

This year wasn’t just about doing the work – it was about celebrating milestones:

  • When Anna Crockett was named in Campaign’s 40 Over 40, we cheered.
  • When we won Best Start-Up at the North West Business Awards, we celebrated as a team.
  • And when Rachael Parry-Jones was shortlisted for the North West Leadership Awards 26, we knew we were on the right path – fingers crossed for a win!

Campaigns That Tell Their Own Stories
Every campaign we run has a purpose – and this year, some stood out:

Liverpool John Moores University: From open days to graduations, we made sure their message reached the right people, even at major events like Dua Lipa’s concert and Radio 1’s Big Weekend. And the best part? We’ll keep telling their story for two more years as their official OOH media buyer.

Visit Southport: For the third year, we helped Sefton Council showcase the beauty of Southport – and this time, we added digital magic for the Air Show and British Musical Firework Championship.

Health Campaigns: When 69% of people said they saw our flu vaccination ads before booking, we knew we’d made an impact. And our suicide prevention campaign? It was about saving lives – using creative touches like beer mats, overnight radio, and even football stadium placements.

Police Partnerships: Seven campaigns tackling tough issues – drink driving, domestic abuse, exploitation – all with results that beat industry benchmarks.

Going Global: Liverpool City Region lit up Times Square, New York, and we delivered 11% over promised exposure. A proud moment for us and for the city.

Doing Good Along the Way
Our story isn’t just about campaigns – it’s about values:

  • We planted trees with Make it Wild, offsetting 20 tonnes of carbon emissions.
  • We supported charities like Standing Tall Foundation, Bebe’s Hive, and Queenscourt Hospice.
  • And we gave back at Christmas, donating to causes close to our hearts.

The Next Chapter
2025 was packed with incredible work – from Southport Flower Show to fostering campaigns and welcoming new clients like Preston College and Brownlow Health. But the story doesn’t end here. In 2026, we’re ready to write an even bigger chapter – with campaigns that change behaviour, engage communities, and raise awareness.

A Heartfelt Thank You
To our amazing clients who trusted us and the media owners who helped bring these ideas to life – thank you. You’re the reason this story is worth telling.
