We partnered with Tinder to create 6 new profiles that guaranteed a ‘swipe right.’ Made in Chelsea's Jamie Laing, Olympic gold medalist Jade Jones and Emmerdale's Gemma Oaten (all supporters of Organ Donation who appealed to our audience) plus three influential Instagram bloggers with a combined reach of over 100k. When a Tinder user swiped right to "match" one of our profiles they would receive a message stating " if only it were that easy for someone in need of a life-saving organ to find a match" the message held a call to action to register, and a click through directly to the NHS Organ Donation Register. Here the user could either find out more information about organ donation or officially register as an Organ Donor.

On December 14th 2015 six spokesperson profiles went live and were pushed to three million Tinder users in the UK ( not all are active users). The app is global, but this activation was targeted to the UK as NHS blood and transplant covers UK only.

On the morning of the 14th of December we gave an exclusive to the BBC, this meant the activation was featured on Victoria Derbyshire's news spot ( with a live interview with NHS Blood and Transplant's director of organ donation Sally Johnston.) It was also featured on radio 1 and radio 4's morning news bulletin. kicking off the activation with a bang.

The partnership activation remained live for two weeks. Registrations were sustained within those two weeks and coverage of the activation went Global. We hit prime time news in America, Australia and the UK, with coverage reaching as far as Mumbai.
