About the Work

Brits are uncomfortable talking about sex in general. Sex in old age? Forget it. Sadly, a whopping 80% of British society agrees. There is a notion that older people shouldn’t, couldn’t and wouldn’t want to have sex or be intimate. A misconception that is unhealthy for everyone. We felt it was beyond time this changed. We needed to start a conversation that was way overdue. So, we shone a spotlight on the unseen intimacy in our later years and celebrated the joy of sex in later life. We launched this as the country began to come out of lockdown because we wanted to be where people would be again. Also, because we wanted to open a long overdue conversation, we put it out in the open in a big way – in huge iconic sites across the UK. At the same time as our OOH launch, and Online Film we had a strategic launch in the UK’s major Sunday newspapers, tapping into the British tradition of reading the weekend newspapers in bed. What better place to start a conversation about sex?
