My team was nominated for our work promoting a pharmacy-led campaign on eye drops.
I created website and social media content for the campaign, including taking photographs, live-tweeting roadshows and creating short instructional videos for social media using a smartphone. The videos achieved great social media engagement, and as a result, we’re now developing longer, professional instructional videos for the pharmacy team.
Judges' comments: "We have given this award to the Know Your Drops campaign team for their innovative and collaborative approach to educating staff, patients and stakeholders about the correct application of eye drops."
