The free-to-enter National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire is a 150-acre garden and woodland site, and the Nation\u2019s year-round place to remember. Part of the Royal British Legion, the Arboretum is home to over 400 memorials commemorating the service and sacrifice of the Armed Forces, Emergency Services and civilian organisations.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Since 2007, TALA has continuously delivered a comprehensive communications programme for the Arboretum, helping the site establish its national profile and assisting the marketing team with driving footfall.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Through integrated storytelling campaigns, managing media at national Remembrance events attended by royalty and prime ministers, and securing profile-raising activities on everything from Countryfile, to Antiques Roadshow and CBeebies, TALA\u2019s efforts have contributed to a 405% increase in visitor numbers. The Arboretum\u2019s profile is now established: the site\u2019s latest YouGov polling (2021) revealed 48% of the public regards the Arboretum as a significant place for Remembrance.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Arboretum was TALA\u2019s first client and the relationship, built on shared values and earned trust, remains strong. TALA is an integral and close-knit part of the site team and helped provide continuity between successive leaders. This long-standing partnership inspired TALA to launch <\/span>ON THE RECORD<\/span><\/a>, the UK\u2019s first national memorial to honour the sacrifice made by UK reporting teams in conflict zones.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n
