The Creative Floor Awards 2019 launches, adding new judges

Now in its sixth year, the awards are the only health and wellness award show to donate a percentage of profits towards a Talent & Diversity Fund, which has so far raised over £65,000.00 to date and continues to help underprivileged talent into healthcare communication agencies.

Area 23’s awards on the night (pictured left) also included mixed media, CGI and illustration prizes, while McCann’s haul included recognition for its cinematography and internal communications work.
Meawhile, last year’s talent fund helped over 370 underprivileged people experience health and wellness briefs from across the UK.
Shaheed Peera, founder of The Creative Floor Awards, said: “We will continue to celebrate our industries best work, agency talent and clients. This year we’ve bought some of the greatest talent in the creative world to judge our show.
