One Minute Brief of the Day: Create posters/cards to show you @LoveYourNHS and @thortful will bring them to life & send them to our heroes on Valentine's Day! #NHSValentines

As it’s the 14th today, it’s exactly one month today until Valentine’s Day. So we’re doing something extra special in the run-up…

We want to show our support and love for all of the NHS staff working so hard throughout the pandemic and, with the distressing news this week that mental health is deteriorating amongst frontline NHS workers, it's more important than ever to demonstrate how much we love them.

That’s why we wanted to join forces with One Minute Briefs and Love Your NHS to set a brief that challenges the OMBLES to show what the NHS means to them and share the love with special Valentine’s-style messages. We’ll be getting the cards created and sending them to hospitals up and down the country to show them what the NHS means to us.

The more submissions we get, the stronger the message will be.

Brief:

Create posters/cards to show you love the NHS and @thortful will bring them to life & send them to our heroes on Valentine's Day! #NHSValentines

We want the OMBLES to come up with shareable and inspirational messages that NHS staff will open on Valentine’s Day and give them a smile. They deserve that right now!

We look forward to seeing all of the great stuff you come up with!
