Springboard Communications was delighted to partner with laya healthcare on The Great Reset: A Brave New Era of Work and Wellbeing, which was shortlisted for the Best Public Relations Campaign Award at the 2021 All Ireland Marketing (AIM) Awards, organised by The Marketing Institute of Ireland.

THE BRIEF

In September 2020, laya healthcare, Ireland’s largest provider of health and wellbeing, launched its The Great Reset: A Brave New Era of Work and Wellbeing research.
