The Health & Wellness Lions celebrate creativity for personal wellbeing and an inspired approach to consumer healthcare, comprising work that publically educates, promotes non-prescription products, allows self-diagnosis or facilitates pro-active personal care.

Health & Wellness jury president Mike Rogers (creative partner, Serviceplan Health & Life, Germany) said: “Since the introduction of Lions Health in 2014, it’s been fascinating to witness the incredible impact the Health & Wellness Lion has had on the industry perception of healthcare creativity.

‘We’ve seen the work flourish and this year’s shortlist showed a range and depth of work, crossing technology and the creative use of data.”

From 2245 entries received in Health & Wellness, 65 Lions were awarded: 14 Gold, 20 Silver and 30 Bronze.
