Provokateur and The Truth About TB
Provokateur has been working with the charity TB Alert on a new public awareness campaign about TB. The problem, you see, is that most problem think TB has gone away, or that it won’t effect them. The reality, however, is that TB remains a real problem affecting people from diverse communities, backgrounds and lifestyles.
The website for The Truth About TB campaign is a new initiative from the folk at TB Alert to find a clear, simple way of informing the public about the disease, challenging common misconceptions and ensuring people have the knowledge to recognise the symptons and know where to go if they’re worried.
The website was designed around the personal stories of TB patients, drawn from all walks of life. Using videos embedded within the site, visitors can find out about treatment. It’s also got some neat functionality, including a feature that allows you to find your nearest doctor based on your postcode information. Plans are also underway to create some clever widgets for partners in the health sector to use on their own sites… so watch this space.
And in the meantime, you can check out the site here: www.thetruthabouttb.org
