The 1:1 Diet by Cambridge Weight Plan is embarking on a new brand journey as part of its 35th anniversary celebrations.

An already successful brand which has built its presence through one-to-one support, The 1:1 Diet is now seeking to take the industry by storm.

Following the transformation of its brand name and logo, this month it will launch an extensive advertising and marketing campaign built around the concept of “This is the One”.

With a new website, PR and social activity, and a TV, cinema and radio ad that features a unique song that’s bound to get toes tapping, it’s an exciting move for the company which boasts more than three decades of weight loss expertise.

Launching in May, the multi-million-pound campaign follows the appointment of a team of agencies.

They include Think Shape Do which has led on brand strategy throughout the review. Driven is the lead creative agency. Republic of Media for media buying, Lucre on PR and social strategy and True on digital and website.
