British Gas’ live activation gets people talking

Uncategorized

‘Home’ can mean a very different thing to different people.

For some it simply means a roof over your head. For others it can be a feeling. Warmth. Safety. Independence.

Working in partnership with homelessness charity Shelter, British Gas wanted to find out what ‘home’ means to people in Britain today.

In a simple but highly engaging live activation, the brand asked people to write down one word that described what home is for them. Written on colourful post-it notes, their chosen words were used to decorate the walls of a white room.

Kids and adults alike jumped at the chance to get involved and before long the entire room was covered in a vivid display of words and colours.

The stunt is part of Shelter and British Gas’ ‘Great Home Debate,’ a national campaign which aims to shape and improve standards for homes in Britain.
