In 2003 Forster was appointed to design and deliver stakeholder communications.  We've bneen working on the campaign ever since and have played an itegral part in its evolution - from the development of an effective peer-to-peer street marketing initiative, to creating innovative design for campaign materials.

Outcomes

  • In 2006 over 400 young people were trained as street marketers
  • The success of the scheme resulted in 'train-the-trainer' schemes being set up in 43 high risk areas
  • And in 2008, this extended to training taking place in 192 locations
