Breast Cancer Awareness Month - October 2025

Spoiler alert, I’m fine now. It was a Thursday. A normal day. As my arm brushed over my breast as I was getting dressed, something felt weird. There was a lump, and it was not small. Hmm. OK. Don’t panic. It’s probably nothing. Don’t. Panic. I went to work and made a plan. I’d give it 24 hours, and if it was still there, I’d call the GP.

The Gender Health Gap: Why it Exists and How to Close It

March 8, 2024

In the UK, a stark gender health gap is casting a dark shadow over the well-being of women.

That's a wrap!

December 23, 2023

This festive season the Salt team assembled a little book of our favourite recipes – we hope you enjoyed it! We recorded a wonderful 139 downloads, taking our total Food For All UK donation to £1,390.

Salt // six

October 9, 2023

It’s felt like a bit of pivotal year this year. Last year, turning 5 felt like a big milestone, but maybe it’s this year that’s really sunk in. It’s been a year of discovery, evolution and excitement, and we’re very much ready for year 7!

The speed of progress

June 20, 2023

I’ve reached the age where I am having to push myself to keep up with new technology and not resist it. Don’t get me wrong, I love technology and how it can improve the way things are done and make people’s lives better. I mean can anyone remember what they did before mobile phones and the internet?

Channel-Strategy: Taming the demon

April 13, 2023

The average person sees 5,000–10,000 adverts a day(1). Let that sink in… With that being said, how does the rule ‘a person needs to see a message seven times for it to stick’ fit in? Surely we would all be towing the company-line by now.

Meals for downloads

December 6, 2022

This year the Salt team has assembled this little book of our favourite recipes that we hope you’ll enjoy! For every download we’re donating a meal to Food For All UK, a charity that supports those struggling to put food on the table. Please help us reach our target of donating £1,000 to this truly worthwhile cause.

Salt // five

October 10, 2022

It seems like only yesterday that we made the decision to start our own agency, and back then we wouldn’t have believed where Salt is as we turn 5 - transitioning from a start up to an established agency.

It’s Christmas

December 23, 2021

Christmas is only one day of the year, and we were keen to do something more long-lasting than a typical Christmas donation. Ilford Sunday drop-in caught our eye, and we’re delighted to be able to support them to expand the wonderful work they do with vulnerable and homeless people. https://www.facebook.com/ISDFH/

Salt // four

October 10, 2021

And in a blink of an eye, Salt is four! The last 12 months really have flown by, which is a strange feeling given the pandemic simultaneously feels like it’s lasted forever. We almost feel grown up now, fully established and excited about where we are, as well as what’s still to come.

Believe

July 18, 2021

We at Salt have been chatting a lot recently about the fact that we’ve not written a blog since last year. It’s sad how these are the things that are first to go when there is a lot of work on, and given our last post was about the joys of cashflow it was pointed out to us recently (thanks Stuart!) that we may have left the wrong impression ...

Lewy Body Dementia Awareness Week - a personal story

June 11, 2021

This week is Lewy Body Dementia Awareness Week[1]. Despite my Dad having had LBD I had no idea the awareness week existed. I guess that’s why we need to raise awareness. Lewy Body Dementia, for those of you who don’t know, is the second biggest cause of dementia in the UK...

One year on

March 15, 2021

A year ago today I was battling a nasty respiratory virus that may or may not have been COVID-19. I still don't know. Reading this post again, it is amazing how much has changed in the last year.

You delivered a special piece of work: high quality, thought-provoking… it will ultimately stand the test of time.
