2026 Self-Care Excellence Awards

We entered the 2024 Self-Care Excellence Awards to formally recognise the incredible work behind the launch of Coloxyl Macrogol for Children - a major milestone for both Aspen & the Coloxyl brand.  The award submission was our way of honouring the cross-functional collaboration that brought this product to life, from our dedicated internal teams driving development, to our agency partner/s, Ogilvy health & Pharmacy Club, who helped shape and execute a highly successful launch campaign.
 
Winning the award was both humbling and motivating. It validated the passion, expertise and hard work that went into delivering an innovative solution for families. Celebrating this achievement amongst industry peers - who understand the complexities of our space - made the recognition even more meaningful.
 
We proudly celebrated the win across the entire organisation with an internal announcement that acknowledged all contributors to the product development and launch campaign. The recognition helped to inspire and reward the broader team, reinforcing the power of collaboration. We also shared the trophies with our agency partners — a small heartfelt gesture of gratitude and shared pride.
 
Today, the awards are still displayed proudly — not only in our offices, but also on the desk of our CEO, Trevor Ziman — a lasting reminder of what’s possible when great people come together with purpose-driven innovation and creative excellence.

At Ward6, we believe great healthcare communication isn’t just about creativity, it’s about impact. That’s why the Self-Care Excellence Awards are so important to us – they celebrate bold, meaningful work and set the benchmark for best practice. Last year, we were thrilled to take home the award for Best Launch of a Consumer Healthcare Product for our campaign with Organon: ‘Beat the Migraine Blackout’. The insights-driven campaign tackled the stigma of migraine and built authentic connections with our audience. Winning the award gave us more than recognition, it gave our message amplification, our purpose momentum, and our team a renewed sense of what’s possible when clients trust bold ideas. We’re proud to create work that changes behaviour, improves lives, and redefines what healthcare marketing can be.

Winning the Outstanding & Innovative New Consumer Healthcare Product award at the 2024 Self-Care Excellence Awards was a proud moment for our entire team at We Test Bio. We entered the awards to benchmark our work against the best in the industry and to celebrate our commitment to empowering consumers with accessible, at-home health testing. The recognition not only boosted team morale but also helped build external credibility at a critical stage in our growth. We proudly showcased the win across our channels, and it’s had a lasting impact - opening new conversations with partners, customers, and healthcare stakeholders who now view us as a brand to watch in the self-care space.
