We are supporting the talents of Musical Youth Theatre Stafford who develop the singing, acting and dancing skills of children and young people from Stafford and surrounding areas in the run up to their next major production of West Side Story in the Summer of 2014. Our ad is running next to a major MYTS profile in the programme for this year's panto "Sleeping Beauty" at the Stafford Gatehouse Theatre.

Chuffed to see our own Andy Wilkinson adorning (well gurning...) on the back page of the Birmingham Post Business Daily, and we are sure he's hoping from some free vino from Opus come chrimbo!

Our brand continues to grace the 2013 Marussia F1™ Team at the 2013 Formula 1 Airtel Indian Grand Prix. The unique opportunity will see our OWB Creative logo on the global stage when French driver Jules Bianchi and British driver Max Chilton take to the track at the Buddh International circuit in New Delhi.

 “We’re absolutely thrilled to have this unique opportunity" comments Andy Wilkinson  "We are working in India currently on the launch of the Online Business School driving potential Indian students to their website, this opportunity with the Marussia F1 Team comes at a perfect time to maximise our brand with partners in India".

Team OWB are proud to be the creative partners of LDC, the leading mid-market private equity company with offices in Birmingham who in 2009 invested to support the creation of what was then one of the newest names in Formula 1™ racing. Now owned by Russian sports car manufacturer Marussia, the team has taken on the Marussia F1 Team name and is led by Team Principal John Booth.

LDC marketing director Rob Pendleton commented: “We’ve been working with OWB since 2004, and they provide excellent direct marketing, online and offline communications campaigns that have supported both our brand development and market profile. This is a fantastic opportunity for them to get their brand noticed around the world.”

Belfry Sporting Club is a pedigree marquee in dinner-club entertainment

Thank you to Angus Fraser, ex England fast bowler and MD of Middlesex CC for a hugely entertaining evening at a packed Belfry Sporting Club.

A few club firsts; being under canvas whilst the Belf goes through its £30m makeover, a wonderfully entertaining power cut and two lady guests (we think they were in the wrong room)....all adds to the rich history of one of the UK's best-loved dinner clubs.

Angus was fantastic and lead a great Q&A covering the future and the present in cricket. All of course wrapped up at the BelAir.
