An NHS study last year found only 1 in 10 nurses were men, and revealed a stigma surrounding the job, where men can be deterred due to a perceived link between nursing and femininity. This campaign sought to overcome this gender imbalance.

It aired during the Rugby World Cup which meant we were able to reach our target male audience.
