Fly on the wall – Notices in our local St Chad’s surgery

Reading Time: 3 minutes

I had I had cause to visit my local GP and whilst waiting for him I decided to have a look around the waiting area to see who was saying what, which potential problems were being identified and how they were trying to involve the audience, the cohort in a call to action.

My comment – it’s difficult to read the type white on colour especially ‘where it’s okay not to be okay’ I’m not sure this was written by someone who is in the potential client group, or whether someone else has written it thinking that it is a cool thing to say. Also, Unit 14, is not a very welcoming or attractive address. It is not clear whether it is a religious based organization or not. Those who are not of religious persuasion might be a bit suspicious of the whole thing. Finally, I don’t like the hands it could be too corpses for all I know, and what about a telephone number for enquirers.   I’m afraid this one doesn’t score very well


I’m not quite clear why this young lady has brown hair on one side and blond on the other I suppose it could be a symbolism for our divided society. What about people of other hues?    I do not know why there are a preponderance of colored people in adverts. This may be part of a national campaign but the three black people are relating well with each other,


 

The typeface is so wrong here. It’s disjointed and, well, just plain wrong. There is no flow within the text. It does not identify the sort of people who are welcome but this may be intentional. Also, I think you should steer away from lunchtime periods. I would rather have had 2 p.m to 3 p.m. for example. There is no contact number,


This is an ambitious educational poster which makes a good point but I think there is a bit too much information for the casual glance. I would tend to say why sugar is wrong from the health point of view


Again, a coloured actress or participant. Is this implying that only people of colour have cancer problems? I get the impression that advertising agencies have been lent on and told that unless you feature colored models you are being racist


Very good and in your face treatment of an important topic.
