Vehicle wraps

Vehicles present a unique opportunity for marketing on the move so our team used this van as a canvas to create a vibrant, eye-catching design which would promote Sandcastle Waterpark in every location it visited. As you can see from this design, the impact of vehicle livery is boosted by the quality of the design. As such, our illustrators created fun, excited assets allowing us to do more than just promote the UK’s largest indoor waterpark… but create visuals that jump out of the bodywork.

Social media and online marketing

Heckford were responsible for running Sandcastle Waterpark’s social media accounts. We created innovative social media posts and competitions for implementation across multiple platforms, which included bespoke artwork. We developed several strategies such as the ‘Facebook Fan of the Week’ competitions which led to huge increases in viral spread with plenty of new and existing users getting involved by submitting their own photos and leaving positive comments, which in turn caused ripples far and wide across the social platforms.
