Celebrating Creativity with Art for Social Change

Celebrating Creativity... 🌟

This week, we're shining a spotlight on Art for Social Change (AFSC), a new global charity and awards scheme championing the power of visual creativity to tackle pressing social issues.

Launching with a campaign focused on loneliness, AFSC is inviting agencies, designers, students and creatives to submit ideas that can inspire behaviour change and encourage connection. The winning campaigns will then form the centrepiece of a major London campaign launching on Blue Monday 2027.

Supported by organisations including the IPA (Institute of Practitioners in Advertising) The Marketing Society, DMA (Data & Marketing Association) UK, Bauer Media Outdoor UK, and Omnicom, the initiative aims to build a global movement that uses creativity to drive positive change.

About Handle Recruitment

We opened the doors in 1978 and built our reputation in the music industry. We quickly realised that a great brand is not always a household name. A great brand is something people connect with, not just a place they work. Somewhere that helps them become better at what they do. It could be a record label, it could be in media, it could be a tech start-up.
