Share Campaign on Socials

Everyone can support and promote the campaign, whether you’re a health professional or not.

If you post nothing else, please post the 2-minute campaign video on launch day, linked here.

We have prepared a digital media pack – with suggested multimedia and captions to make it easy to spread the word via your mailers and Twitter(X)/Threads/Facebook/Instagram/TikTok/LinkedIn – our infographics speak to key messages around environment, cost, inclusivity and health. We encourage you to share these materials starting October 16th and beyond.

Included in our digital media pack are infographics covering four key areas: environmental, cost-saving, inclusivity and health. Additionally, we’ve provided infographics featuring quotes from key signatories and healthcare professionals. Each graphic is available in two formats: a square 4×4 post and an Instagram story format.

To make sharing easier, we’ve also created a variety of suggested text options that you can copy and paste alongside the multimedia. Feel free to adapt the language to suit your style—the algorithms favour original text!
