Hi – David has been championing Peter Gabriel like mad this week! – so I’ll just briefly champion myself…!?

Im starting a new job tomorrow as ‘Creative Communications Director’ at Comic Relief – and basically just to say I am overseeing all the creative output of Comic Relief so will be looking for all the latest inspirational stuff that I can find – so please forward / upload anything that you think is cool / relevant etc.

Comic Relief do far more than anyone realises – one of my first jobs is to make it more obvious that CR does – Red Nose Day, Sport Relief, American Idol Gives Back, Owns ‘Monkey’ (currently being used by PG Tips),  is looking to do substantial  / massive work in the interactive space (should be owning comedy online at least…), runs charities for / with Robbie Williams, Steve Redgrave, Annie Lennox etc, co-owns the chocolate bar ‘Dubble’, has international versions of Comic Relief, a global online day, a massive public education campaign around Mental Health and a few more really exciting potentially huge projects – not a lot then.

I will be overseeing a team of 45 that looks after all print, new media, broadcast & public education output. I want us work with the very best people  – so please recommend excellent agencies and people doing good work….

Also – would be good to know anyones honest thoughts on Comic Relief generally / creatively…?

Thanks – now back to Peter Gabriel….
