Comic Relief<\/a> chief executive and Sport Relief creator Kevin shared with the team the philosophy that has underpinned Comic Relief\u2019s successful campaigns over the past three decades.<\/p>\nHe spoke about the need to distill an organisation\u2019s purpose into a clear message that resonates with the internal team as well as the public, in Comic Relief\u2019s case: to drive positive change through the power of entertainment.<\/p>\n
Founded in 1985, Comic Relief has since raised over \u00a31 billion for poverty relief. Kevin spoke about developing the charity and associated TV show with Richard Curtis and pioneering the idea that celebrities and humour could be used to encourage charitable giving.<\/p>\n
Kevin also told us about filming some of the most iconic Comic Relief moments featuring Sir Billy Connelly and Russel Brand.<\/p>\n
It was a pleasure to have Kevin share insight and anecdotes, and we look forward to welcoming him back soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
