Faith In Nature Debuts First TV Ad in 52 Years
Faith In Nature, a UK-based eco-friendly personal care brand, launched its first-ever TV advertisement in its 52-year history, winning a slot through Channel 4's B Corp competition. The ad, titled 'Bees R Good', features a DIY-style production with employees in homemade costumes, celebrating the brand's commitment to nature and its unique corporate governance where 'Nature' holds a board seat. The campaign premiered on Channel 4 on October 4, 2026, and will air until the end of October. The ad was created by creative agency Dream Quickly, directed by John Ogunmuyiwa, and produced by Blink Productions. Faith In Nature shares a £600,000 prize pool with four other B Corp winners.
This is a creative campaign launch for a niche brand, not a major AdTech or MarTech event. It is relevant for its unique approach to TV advertising and B Corp competition, but has low industry-wide impact.

Clearcast Rejection Leads to Sharper Totm TV Debut
Challenger period care brand Totm aired its first TV ad 'Natural Wonder' on Channel 4, after its original concept was rejected by UK ad clearance body Clearcast. The original ad, 'Safer than a Tampon', was deemed misleading about other tampons. With about a month to produce a replacement, Totm adapted a social campaign concept from agency Insiders, featuring a park ranger in a spoof travelogue. The new ad premiered on October 4, 2026, during The Great Celebrity Pottery Throw Down, as part of Channel 4's B Corp competition. Totm shared £600,000 ($800,000) in free airtime with four other B Corps. The forced change resulted in a more product-focused ad, highlighting Totm's compact applicator tampon with a cotton veil. Totm's CMO Holly Rix notes the ad is the first UK TV ad to address fiber shedding.
