- Our ambition :
To deliver outstanding strategic and creative work that sparks a better future
We’re On
a Mission
To create relationships, fame and success for brands that share our ethos. And our ethos is simple – be as good as we can for the planet, for society, and its future.
We are an agency that chooses its clients very carefully, using all our experience to propel ‘good’ brands ahead of ‘bad’.
We are not a charity and we are by no means saints, we are a company of marketing and communication professionals that believe in the power of strategic thinking and impactful creative that can spread like fire and have a positive impact.
We are the creative agency for brands that do good.
- The founders of catch a fire come from both sides of the fence – advertising agency and client side. This gives us great insight into some of the challenges clients face, helping us understand and develop briefs quickly, efficiently, and right on point
- When we send the founders of the company to a meeting or pitch it’s the founders of the company that work on your brand. We don’t just delegate, we stay truly close to our jobs.
- to compliment our core team we use a trusted set of individuals to create the best work possible. These aren’t full time employees so we can select exactly the right people to suit the job. This keeps our overheads low, a saving we can pass onto you, our client.
Our People are Awesome
And it’s not just us that think so. We share an array of industry awards between us. From deep planning and strategic brains, writers, designers, social content creators and film makers – we strive for creativity that ignites a reaction.

Creative
Global car campaigns. Technology firsts. Fast-paced social activity. The last 20 years in the industry has taught me lots – but it’s also taught me that I don’t just want to make a living, I want to make a difference.
Toby Barty
Strategy
Over the last 20 years, I’ve created brand propositions, consumer journeys and product innovations for household names like Unilever and Heinz. Now I’m taking all that client-side experience and using it to help fire up people’s imaginations and make brands famous.
Mark Etherington
Design
They say the future depends on what we do in the present – so I use my skills to help brands dedicated to making a real difference. From social media, web design and apps to more traditional campaigns, it’s my job to make it have a real impact.
Ethan Lott
Copy
Every brand has an incredible story to tell – trouble is, they don’t know how to tell it. I tear things apart and put them back together in a way that connects with people, draws them into your story and, most importantly, sells.
Nicky Treasure
Digital Design and UX
If you want to move people, you’ve got to make your work move too. Whether it’s your logo, your website or your latest digital billboard, motion graphics can stop people in their tracks and give your brand real standout.
Matt Fretwell
Film
It doesn’t matter if it’s a big-budget commercial or small-scale social film – we make it our mission to create work that intrigues, excites and gives people a reason to love your brand.

The Biggest
Fires Start With a Single Spark
Our agency model is flexible enough to assemble the right team for almost any brief. The two core elements – strategy and creative form a springboard for all other content. This ensures all our ideas are cohesive and therefore create the biggest impact. We take great pride in our work and strive for ideas that catch fire and spread, changing opinions and behaviours.
We believe the only thing you should really be paying for is our in-depth strategic thinking and vast pool of creative ideas.
Our
Promise
A percentage of our fee will be put aside to help improve something – it could be a charity of our clients choosing or we’ll have many alternative suggestions. And this doesn’t mean just handing over a pile of money. It means dedicating the time and effort of our team to do something extraordinary for the chosen cause.
We’d Love to Help You Get Things Fired Up
