The Partnership is a big fan of seeing our Partners work together – particularly if they happen to be helping us out! Therefore, when design and digital agency (and associate Partner) Creative Spark offered to design an animation for us, and then fellow associates Forrest Group Media offered to put said animation onto their big screen in Piccadilly Gardens, we jumped at the chance!

The animation centres on the Piccadilly Loyalty Card, highlighting the number of food and drink discounts that the Loyalty Card offers to those who sign up and collect their card. The animation will run until the end of September on the big screen in Piccadilly Gardens - so keep an eye out on your way through the Gardens!

We’re also pleased to announce that Creative Spark has been appointed by Manchester Central (pictured) to redevelop the conference and exhibition complex’s website to complement the venue’s £29million redevelopment programme.

Neil Marra, creative director at Creative Spark said “We are developing a website that will not only allow the general public to find out what is going on at Manchester Central and when, but will be an amazing tool for organisers, exhibitors and delegates to organise their time at the complex and in Manchester itself.“
The site is due to be launched ahead of the Conservative Party conference, which comes to Manchester at the beginning of October.

Special offer for Partners

Here's some blurb about the screen: The Forrest Citysceen uses cutting edge digital technology to provide a high profile advertising solution. The 54 square metres of display area can run both static, moving and animated images 24 hours a day to a weekly audience of 2.07million.

The screen is fully flexible in terms of campaign duration and can be bought for as little as an hour if required.

Forrest have close working relationships with Manchester City Council, Greater Manchester Police and The Piccadilly Partnership, providing screen time at discounted rates - Forrest would like to extend this to our other partners.

To discuss your requirements further please contact Forrest on 0141 420 6000 or email Marc Keenan on marc.keenan@forrest-group.co.uk, Paul Flynn on paul.flynn@forrest-group.co.uk or Jan McCallum on jan.mccallum@forrest-group.co.uk.
