has reopened its annual programme which gives pro bono advertising space to charities and non-profits that are working to save the planet.
Under the Drops in the Ocean initiative, Ocean Outdoor donates 2% of the Group鈥檚 annual reported revenue to environmental charities in the form of advertising value across the company鈥檚 extensive UK digital screen network.
Organisations and causes associated with the preservation of land, nature, the oceans, global warming, pollution, sustainability and the climate emergency are invited to tap into the Drops in the Ocean fund to advertise their messages, latest campaigns and promote fundraising appeals.
The programme gives charities and causes a chance to appear at scale across some of Ocean UK鈥檚 premium DOOH advertising locations in 17 cities.
Since its inception three years ago, Drops in the Ocean has supported 24 deserving causes, giving them a generous 拢6.5 million in screen space.
Six organisations including Campaign for National Parks, Everyday Plastic, Take the Jump, Solar Aid, The Reef-World Foundation and TreeAid benefited from this year鈥檚 scheme with OOH campaigns.
Jessica Glover, development manager, Campaign for National Parks, said: 鈥淚t's raised awareness significantly for our cause as we campaign to clean up water in our national parks - an absolute national disgrace. We've got supporters off the back of this with our campaigning, and for us, just having images of our billboards to be able to post on social media is still helping us explain our cause to supporters and funders and that our campaigning works.鈥
Ocean senior marketing manager Shona Dobson said: 鈥淒rops in the Ocean allows us to address a wide spectrum of important environmental and sustainability problems, many of which will continue to impact all of us in 2025.鈥
Organisations are invited to submit short pitches, with applications closing on Friday 17th January 2025. To be considered for the scheme, applicants should visit or email Dropsintheocean@oceanoutdoor.com
