Encouraging viewers to use the LetsGetChecked at-home screening test so they know their status.
The challenge: LetsGetChecked (LGC), an at-home testing health and wellness company, asked Because to help them bring a moving client-story to life, in order to promote awareness about early testing for colon cancer.
The idea: Colon Cancer is one of the UK’s most common causes of cancer-related deaths. Regular screenings can help detect it earlier, but to take the public NHS test, you have to be a specified age, and sadly it’s often too late by then.
Mark, a LGC customer, was concerned about colon cancer. Being a year under the NHS screening age, he took a LGC at-home test. Unfortunately, he screened positive, and was diagnosed with late-stage colon cancer. Mark tragically died 14 months later, leaving his close friend, Gavin, a sum of money to get their group of friends tests so they could all be screened.
It’s this story LetsGetChecked and Gavin wanted to share.
The solution: We created an online video featuring Gavin, that told the moving, but hard-hitting story of Mark’s journey, and their friendship that ended too soon. The film highlights the importance of early detection, and encourages viewers to use the LetsGetChecked at-home screening test so they know their status.
Making it extraordinary: LetsGetChecked gave Gavin 150 kits to fulfil Mark’s wish, and the money was donated to a charity in Mark’s name.
