Since 1962, D&AD has been inspiring a community of creative thinkers by celebrating and stimulating the finest in design and advertising. A D&AD Award is recognised globally as the ultimate creative accolade, entered and attended by the best from around the world.

But it’s much more than just awards. Discovering and nurturing new talent is at the heart of what D&AD do. And as a not-for-profit all surpluses are reinvested to help support people at every stage of their creative careers and to stimulate the industry to work towards a fairer more sustainable future.

D&AD’s New Blood programme reaches young creatives from as far and wide as possible to offer inspiration, learning and genuine breaks on their way into industry.

Beyond this, D&AD members join a vibrant global community, whilst creatives and clients are inspired by a world-class training programme.
