Langland and McCann Healthcare Sydney took home the highly coveted ‘Best of Show’ awards at the 2011 IPA Best of Health Awards, held last night at Quaglino’s in London.
The annual IPA Best of Health Awards celebrate creativity in healthcare advertising across all media, from print to radio, film, direct mail and digital.
This year saw six Gold, 26 Silver and 63 Bronze awards presented, as well as the two ‘Best of Show’ awards and special prizes for best use of photography, illustration, copy and art direction.

Langland was awarded ‘Best of Show’ for advertising to consumers, for its Questival campaign for Bayer HealthCare. Questival is an interactive website, involving the creative use of webcams, microphones and festival-style graphics and language that provides important information for teenagers and young adults with haemophilia. Topics on the site provide advice regarding travelling abroad, festivals, body art, sex, and more.
McCann Healthcare Sydney was awarded ‘Best of Show’ for advertising to healthcare professionals for their ‘Rational Explanation’ campaign for Pfizer.
The mixed media campaign encourages healthcare professionals to screen elderly patients for Alzheimer’s during routine consultations, so that the disease can be detected in its early stages.
The creative work sensitively demonstrates life with Alzheimer’s and features images of a pair of slippers in a toaster, a tomato ketchup bottle next to the shower gel, and crockery piled up in a chest of drawers, accompanied by the tagline ‘There’s a perfectly rational explanation’.
Chairman of judges and founding partner at Archibald Ingall Stretton Steve Stretton said: “As the Department of Health’s recent report has shown, healthcare advertising works; if you cut budgets lives are put at stake. It is therefore reassuring to see that the winners of the Best of Health Awards demonstrate that healthcare creativity is alive and well and helping to successfully communicate important healthcare messages.
“Congratulations to all the winners, particularly the Best of Shows: two great examples of creativity in healthcare communications from opposite sides of the world.”
Frank Walters, non-executive chairman at Frontera London and convenor of judges, said: “I was one of the founders of the Best of Health Awards back in 1993, which was formed with the mission to reward and showcase the best in healthcare creativity. This year’s 63 Bronze Awards; 26 Silvers and six Golds are shining examples of this mission and all of them should be very proud of their achievements and in standing out in this highly-regulated sector.”
