Pharma > Disease Awareness & Understanding
DDB REMEDY, London / PFIZER / 2018
Overview

Audience
Designed for children with haemophilia, we have considered two age groups. But our audience is broader than kids – parents, carers, extended family and friends can all benefit. It speaks to kids, from a kid – so it’s relatable and understandable. It takes a complex condition and makes it simple.

The work was intended to be localised by country, so not approved to any specific code. Yet everything was put through months of approval to ensure medical and legal compliance. The board game was also reviewed by patients, their families, specialist haemophilia nurses and a child psychologist.
EntrySummary
Haemophilia is a genetic disease that affects the way that blood clots. Without regular medication, it can result in death, long-term injury or permanent disability. With medication, people can have normal life expectancies and, within reason, do almost anything someone without haemophilia can do. People are born with haemophilia, meaning they have to start dealing with it from a young age. But there’s a lot to get your head around when you’re just a kid. You have to be aware of what you can do safely, why you need medicine and what makes you different to other kids. Starting school is a key moment – children are away from their main carers for the first time, and will need to be able to explain their condition. Information needs to be straightforward and simple, so they can understand themselves and can share what they need to with their friends and teachers.
