Editor's Notes
- We know the power that marketing can have in influencing behaviour. Public health marketing is not about getting people to spend more money, but helping them to make the right decisions to live a healthier and longer life . In the PHE marketing team, our role is to change the behaviours of individuals, families, workforces, communities and businesses, so that it becomes easier for us all to live healthier, longer and more fulfilled lives. We do this by: • Gaining insight into why people behave as they do • Deploying learning from the behavioural sciences to change behaviour • Understanding the needs of local communities • Developing impactful creative campaigns • Making innovative use of new digital communications channels • Mining data, to anticipate people’s needs and to measure impact
- On 7 March 2016, for the first time, Public Health England launched a new campaign that talks to adults directly about all of the things they could do to improve their health in one place This was the most significant new health campaign to launch in the last eight years, since Change4Life The scale of the campaign is unprecedented and will become the friendly voice of adult health across England Today I will talk to you about how we developed this new brand, how partners across the NHS are using it in their work, and how you can get involved
- The latest data suggests 40% of all deaths in England are caused by modern day lifestyle choices, costing the NHS more than £11 billion annually. Smoking is still the biggest single cause of preventable death and ill-health within England and costs the NHS an estimated £2billion per year. Physical inactivity causes an estimated 17% of premature mortality in the UK and moderate obesity reduces life expectancy by an average of three years. Helping adults make better choices today can have a huge influence on health, and could prevent conditions like type 2 diabetes, cancer and heart disease, and reduce the risk of suffering a stroke or living with dementia, disability and frailty in later life.
- The evidence from NICE, the World Health Organisation and others show that the loss of ability typically associated with ageing is only loosely related to a person’s chronological age. There is no “typical” older person. A longer life is an incredibly valuable resource. It provides the opportunity for rethinking not just what older age might be, but how our whole lives might unfold. Yet the extent of the opportunities that arise from increasing longevity will depend heavily on one key factor: health. If people are experiencing these extra years of life in good health, their ability to do the things they value will be little difference from that of a younger person. If these added years are dominated by declines in physical and mental capacity, the implications for older people and for society are much more negative.
- NICE has identified those aged between 40-60 as being a key window of opportunity to engage adults in their own health to prevent diseases in late years. C2DE 40-60 years olds – 6,948,000 Total 40-60 years olds – 15,222,000 Total adults (18+) – 44,659,366 Health is not just linked to the health service. Life expectancy and premature mortality rates vary across the country – higher rates are strongly linked to socioeconomic deprivation. The focus on people within the C2DE social grade helps address this inequality.
- Social and community norms reinforce unhealthy behaviours, as going for a run or eating differently from those around you would negatively ‘stand out’ while denying food would seem impolite. Although many recognise that being overweight is a sign that they are unhealthy, equally overweight friends normalise it and make it hard to recognise unhealthy living. Stay away from ‘faddy’ health marketing, but they also end-up wedded to their traditional roles and are unwilling to change; distinction between genders. ‘Sandwich generation’; their own well-being is neglected; over-catering and having well-stocked cupboards; they live through their children. Debt and low pay mean having to work extra shifts; long-term stress; limit their ability to gain control over their health. Low skilled shift work; high stress with little reward; irregular shift patterns make setting new routines difficult; this means they are reactive about life rather than proactive; diets consist mostly of ready meals and frozen food; exercise is avoided; they seek rewards; alcohol and tobacco become vices. More concerned with the impact on today; many do not engage with this as equally overweight friends normalise it and make it hard to recognise unhealthy living; others absorb size into personality Contradictory marketing leads to lack of confidence in their own assessment; want quick fix solutions, but know that these are unlikely to work; only measure of health that can be trusted is a doctor. Can only plan for the week ahead; future in a piecemeal, rather than in a holistic manner; health is important in the future but only as a determinant of the age they will die.
- Public health marketing campaigns are a key way of helping people to help themselves to live healthier for longer. In doing so they will contribute to not only the sustainability of the NHS, but greatly enhance the quality of life for millions of adults in this country.
- Currently a large proportion of adults in this country believe they will get old and infirm and they will die soon after, so deteriorating quality of life does not matter This is a dangerous assumption The average life expectancy for men is 80 years and women it is 83 years So in reality you are going to get old and live a long, time. How well you live in later life is largely up to you. Our ambition is to reframe ageing and make change easier, more desirable and more achievable. To do this we needed to create a brand and a campaign powerful enough that people would come to us and want to engage. Our budgets were smaller than we would traditionally have thrown at an ambition as grand as this – therefore more than ever, it’s about partnership, creativity and content – not the perfect 30 second TV ad.
- Key insight: in order to value your health you need to value yourself. The target audience has de-prioritised their own health and perceives that it’s just too difficult to change (many have tried and failed) The campaign needed to reframe the value of health – provide positive messages about why it’s important, and; Reframe the way to health – provide support that makes change easier and more manageable
- Working over the past 12 months with the target audience to develop a brand that really cuts through and encourages reappraisal, three major rounds of consumer testing ‘One You’ brand performed very strongly throughout testing. People intuitively understood what it meant: Simple colour palette uses teal as the lead colour, and yellow as the secondary tint (hints of NHS/C4L – suggests health to people without screaming it) Distinctive typographical approach uses two fonts, and manages to be both authoritative (really clear, straight font) and friendly (handwritten font emphasises the positive and talks to you direct) The feel is straight-talking and sympathetic.
- The meaning people take from the brand is threefold: There’s only one you - you matter (important for an audience that deprioritises its health) You only get one chance - sense of jeopardy Positivity – it’s in your power to make a change. One You is an ally there to motivate and support with new hints, tips, tools and programmes to help you get back to the real you.
- One You helps adults avoid preventable death and future disease caused by lifestyle factors. These are everyday habits and behaviours, such as eating too much unhealthy food, drinking more than is recommended, continuing to smoke and not being active enough. The NHS spends more that £11bn a year on treating illnesses caused by the effects of diet, inactivity, smoking and drinking alcohol. “How to improve sleep” and “how to reduce stress levels” are some of the most searched for terms on the NHS choices website. While there are no quick-fix cures for stress or sleeping trouble, eating a better diet, exercising and drinking less alcohol can help. Many people ‘sleepwalk’ gradually into ill health. Taking a small amount of time periodically to monitor our own health is vital.
- Part of the One You offer is the ‘How are you’ quiz which is a health related marketing ‘quiz’ (not a medical or clinical diagnostic tool) that starts a conversation about an individual’s health, lets people know how they’re doing and drives to product(s) they can use to change behaviours. We promoted ‘How Are You’ through all of the national advertising during the launch of One You and beyond. First part of the quiz focuses on the broad question ‘how are you?’ - asking a person to choose between different statements on a slider e.g. lean and mean vs fat and flabby / down in the dumps vs over the moon. Or what stops you taking care of your self – highlight relevant icons e.g. I don’t have the time, I don’t have the money. Top health priorities – have more energy, fit into my jeans, feel young etc. The next set of questions then starts to work through the key behaviours. E.g. smoking, do you?, how many? Frequency? The output of these questions are the results and we deliver users with an overall score out of 10 and red, amber, green score on the individual behaviours.
- Support in a variety of ways Driving people to take the How Are You? quiz Serving up apps and activities ‘Snackable’ content on all the key behaviours Partner offers Links to content from partners and on NHS Choices Click through to Local Authority hubs
- NHS organisations are an integral part of One You. We set out to build a flexible brand that could be used locally to inspire change and engagement with community-led services, helping patients and local residents address the One You key behaviours. We’ve seen a wide range of responses, from face to face One You events, to buying out-of-home advertising to support the launch, to the complete rebranding of services. Many local authorities have used One You insights and assets to overhaul their corporate public health web pages and create a clearer route for residents into local services and national digital products. As well as signposting through primary care services, the NHS has also supported in its capacity as a major employer.
- Kent Community Health NHS Trust Foundation is a great example of localised messaging and incorporating the One You tone of voice across their channels. They have used a personal approach and balanced local imagery with the national campaign identity to make One You really feel like it belongs in Kent. Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust run the Healthy Lifestyles Service in Torbay and South Devon. They have recently rebranded this service as One You Torbay – offering support across all of the seven core lifestyle behaviours that are covered by the One You campaign. Pennine Care NHS Foundation Trust are commissioned to run Tameside’s Health and Wellbeing service. They have recently been reconfigured to include smoking cessation support, weight management, physical activity and community health development activity. They have used the One You brand to create a coherent offer for local residents. Hounslow’s One You service is delivered in partnership by the Council and Hounslow and Richmond Community Healthcare Trust. Its team of Health Advisors help local residents to move more, eat well, drink less alcohol and be smoke free. It also provides information on how local people can reduce their stress levels and sleep better.
- Lots of support through social media
- We have created a bespoke tool kit for use in hospitals or GP Surgeries. This contains posters, conversation starter leaflets and guide on how One You can help start conversations with patients about healthier lifestyle changes. Visit our Campaign Resource Centre to order yours today. There are also opportunities where we feel One You can support NHS organisations by co-branding. These are: 1. Internally – One You can be used either as an over-arching brand for workplace well-being or as a supporting brand where the NHS organisation already has its own recognised health and well-being campaign in place for staff. 2. Externally – One You can be used as a co-brand where a local authority has commissioned an NHS organisation to run health and well-being services for the public. It will be up to the local authority commissioning the service to decide if the One You brand is applied to their service communications.
