Proud to play a part in The Scouts' Day of Celebration and Achievement! 💜

Ever since we started our creative partnership with The Scouts in 2010, we've been happily supporting this prestigious annual event.

For each unique edition, we produce vibrant event programmes, large format banners and outdoor signage, as well as supporting materials for the King's Scout Award. 🥇

This award represents the top achievement for Explorer Scouts and Scout Network members and is an important part of the ceremony at Windsor Castle. 🏰

Reflecting on this event, we'd like to thank the team behind this special day. It's always a pleasure working together!

Did you know? Lincoln's Steep Hill was recently named "Britain’s prettiest street" by The Telegraph! 📰

As a family business with a long history in Lincoln, we were delighted to hear this.

Especially as we even left a small mark on the Steep Hill ourselves, through design and creative production projects like this shop sign for the Society for Lincolnshire History and Archaeology 📚

Over the years, we've proudly partnered with many independent businesses located in this beautiful area, so it's lovely to see them recognised for their contributions to the impressive Steep Hill.

This month we have some incredible work anniversaries in our team: our Print Finishing Specialists, Sue Bratton and Zelda Walker-Browne, are celebrating 70 years of combined service at Ruddocks! 🎉

It's not every day you hear about such incredible work anniversaries, but like this are quite normal in our team, which is something we take great pride in 😊

Since joining us in May 1988 and 1994, respectively, Sue and Zelda have played a crucial part in our team, bringing not only their expert skills, but also friendliness and a sense of humour that keeps us all positive.

The pair have worked together for over 3 decades, manually handling thousands of projects with care and precision.

Congratulations on your amazing achievements! We truly couldn't thank you both enough for your dedication and continued support over the years.

What an amazing weekend, celebrating Lincoln City Football Club's historic promotion to the Championship at the Imps Parade!

As a creative production partner and supporter of Lincoln City FC, we truly couldn't be prouder of the Imps' achievements!

And having designed the 'Proud to be Lincoln' brand for the City of Lincoln Council almost a decade ago, it was lovely seeing it waved across the city and displayed on the parade buses in front of the impressive Lincoln Cathedral. ❤

So beautiful seeing how sport brings people together. Up the Imps! ⚽

A few weeks ago, eight of us swapped warm beds for cardboard boxes and spent a night out in the cold to support YMCA Lincolnshire’s Sleep Easy campaign.

It was uncomfortable, eye-opening, and a powerful reminder of the realities many people face every night.

Thanks to your incredible support, we raised over £2,700 to help fund vital services tackling homelessness!

Find out more about the experience and the difference it’s making.

In March, the Ruddocks team took part in the national Sleep Easy campaign, spending a night sleeping outdoors to raise awareness & funds for YMCA Lincolnshire.

From concept to conference 💚 Honoured to help Macmillan Cancer Support deliver the Macmillan Professionals Conference and Excellence Awards through our creative design solutions.

Last Thursday, hundreds of healthcare professionals came together at The ICC Birmingham to celebrate outstanding achievements and innovations in the cancer care sector.

To support a full day of interactive workshops and conference panels, as well as a brilliant evening, our team had the pleasure of designing and producing a wide range of event assets.

Everything from screen graphics, large format banners, as well as visuals for digital screens and outdoor signage was all designed in our creative studio.

Our team also produced a selection of supporting event materials, including external posters, place cards, guest lanyards and certificates, plus the winners' trophies. 🏆

For almost a decade, we've been Macmillan's creative production partner and proudly supported their important mission of caring for people in the UK affected by cancer.

And as always, it's been an absolute pleasure working with the Macmillan team and helping this significant event come to life!

Celebrating Newton's legacy through creative design 🍏

We were delighted to partner with Lincoln BIG on the brand creation for a new interactive trail.

Celebrating 3 centuries of Isaac Newton's legacy, this 2027 event will feature apple-shaped sculptures made by Wild in Art and painted by local artists, dotted across Lincoln. 🍎

This unique tourist trail will engage people and schools across the county through interactive activities and educational programmes, designed by our creative team.

Plus, funds raised from this initiative will go towards supporting a vital charity: Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance 🚁

With a 141-year heritage in Lincoln, it's so meaningful for us to support such local initiatives.

And we were honoured to create the visual elements and creative materials that form this innovative trail and honour the discoveries of Lincolnshire-born Isaac Newton.

More to come soon 💚
