Known for being a creative awards body D&AD embodied by our our pencils. D&AD is a non-profit advertising and design association, all D&AD's surpluses go straight into programmes such as New Blood and Shift, inspiring the next generation of creative talent and stimulating the creative industry to work towards a fairer more sustainable future.
To run our programs and awards effectively, we turn to the industry for its experience, expertise, and passion. Whether it’s serving as a judge, awarding pencils, teaching our Shifters, mentoring our Acadders, or crafting briefs for the New Blood Awards, there are many opportunities to get involved.
