Award-winning brand communications agency Gardiner Richardson revived cool Britannia at its 25th anniversary party.

Almost 200 of the agency’s clients, employees and partners past and present packed Generator Studios in Newcastle which was transformed by a giant tipi tent festooned with fairy lights, DJ, horsebox bar and the obligatory oversized deckchair for festival style photos.

Lucy Gardiner, Director, said: “So many people have helped us get to our quarter century and it was great to get together with so many of them tonight. Whether we’re building a successful business, facing tough times or responding to a creative brief – it’s better done together. It’s how we’ll thrive for the next 25.”

Since 1998, Gardiner Richardson has worked around the world and closer to home bringing brands to life through design, PR, social media and content creation. The agency’s clients have included Newcastle Building Society, Ringtons, Egger Global, Northumbria University and Newcastle City Council.
