Our Approach

In April 2023, we were tasked with setting up radio interviews to promote Lorraine’s ‘No Butts’ campaign, an initiative raising awareness of Bowel Cancer in support of Bowel Cancer Awareness Month. A major part of the campaign was to celebrate the life of the late, great Dame Deborah James who initially spearheaded the movement alongside host Lorraine Kelly back in 2021. 

With Lorraine available for interviews for just two hours and only once her live show had wrapped, our challenge was to set up as many interviews as possible in the limited time we had available.
