Christmas advert  background gradient image

This year’s Christmas ad tells the story of a big-hearted man who takes up a certain new hobby a little later in life than you’d expect.

Although he struggles initially, he never gives up – despite the bumps and scrapes. And, after a few weeks, he begins to get the hang of it. 

But then, with a ring of the doorbell, it becomes clear what – or who – all his efforts have been for. Because it’s what we do that matters most.
