THE CHALLENGE
Our lives are powered by digital connectivity to an unthinking extent. But millions of Brits are digitally excluded. Vodafone’s everyone.connected campaign aims to donate free connectivity to bridge the digital divide. How could we raise mass awareness of the issue while growing brand love for Vodafone?

THE IDEA
We created an emotive, visual cue that celebrated Vodafone’s everyone.connected campaign in a way which built widespread awareness and engagement. We worked with world-renowned photographer Rankin to create the Vodafone ‘Faces of Disconnection’ exhibition, showcasing the real stories behind digital exclusion. Each image illustrated the different social issues which Vodafone’s campaign combats. The exhibition was launched at a pop-up event in London and released online and via one to one media briefings along with research which highlighted the extent of the UK’s hidden connectivity issue.
