A leading Cheshire-based creative advertising agency has announced the launch of 'Create Good', a new initiative providing high-impact marketing services free of charge to one exceptional local non-profit organisation.

Thrive, based in Congleton, will donate its strategic expertise, creativity and digital resources through its newly launched Charity of the Year programme, helping to support a local charity or Community Interest Company (CIC).

At a time when charities are under growing pressure to deliver more services with fewer resources, 'Create Good' aims to bridge the gap between professional marketing and the social sector.

The selected partner will receive a comprehensive package of support, including brand strategy, campaign creative, social media management and digital advertising — all designed to drive donations, boost awareness and increase community engagement.

Thrive's Managing and Creative Director, Dave Powell, told Nub News: "Helping everyone thrive is a philosophy at the heart of the agency.

"Creativity is one of the greatest advantages a brand can have, but we recognise it's not accessible to everyone, especially in the not-for-profit sector where budgets are increasingly tight.

"Create Good is out to change that. Through our core strategic marketing, creative and digital services we're aiming to bring a real difference for our charity partner."

The initiative is open to registered charities and CICs based in Cheshire or Staffordshire that demonstrate a clear vision and a clear need for professional marketing support.

The chosen partner will be selected based on where Thrive believes it can bring the greatest value and long-term impact.

Applications for the 'Create Good' Charity of the Year are now open. Interested organisations are invited to complete the short online application HERE.

The deadline for applications is 15 March. Shortlisted charities will be invited to attend a discovery session with the Thrive team, and the final partner will be announced on 30 April.

Thrive has previously supported a number of well-known local charities, including Friends for Leisure, Ruby's Fund, Just Drop In, Stick 'n' Step, Visyon, Carers Trust 4All and Petty Pool.
