Brand: Vic Health
Agency: The Shannon Company
The Verdict: Communicates a good message but fails to be different or recognisable enough
Jacqui Paterson, senior creative, Spinach Advertising, says:

Paterson says VicHealth could have built more on the momentum of the UK campaign
“As a woman and mother of a teenage daughter, I’m a big fan of any campaign that motivates and empowers women. When the original, world-renowned ‘This Girl Can’ campaign launched in 2015, it was a breath of fresh air. A mix of raw and sweaty, jiggly and toned women, of all ages, move freely across our screens without fear or prejudice.
