  • British Down Syndrome Swimming

We have successfully run the British Championships for 3 years and with the help of Andy Yeomans and Grapefruit Graphics we have managed to execute a very professionally branded competition. With a few challenges to overcome poolside, Grapefruit Graphics has satisfied the promotional needs of all our sponsors creating splendid advertising boards and a much needed promotional banner which is a centre piece for photographs.

GG are so efficient and committed to installing their materials, always prepared to work late at unsociable times to ensure the venue is ready and cleared away post event.

Every year Andy and his team come up with new ideas and the idea of introducing floor graphics to guide, give confidence and inspire the swimmers competing was such an innovation. Thank you!

The British Down Syndrome Swimming Championships is a flagship annual event that celebrates the talent, dedication and athleticism of swimmers with Down syndrome from across the UK highlighting their abilities in the pool and beyond.

British Down Syndrome Swimming Championships Branding

We were approached to manage the event’s full branding and visual identity delivery - tasked with creating an environment that not only looked professional but also celebrated the athletes in a meaningful and uplifting way.

As a fully integrated project management company, we provided everything in-house – from creative design and production to on-site installation. This streamlined communication and guaranteed that every element aligned with the client’s vision. Our design team developed a bright, engaging look that conveyed both professionalism and warmth, tailored to be accessible and inclusive. This visual language was carried through all physical and digital assets across the venue.

Our all-in-house structure meant we could take this project from concept to completion under one roof, ensuring a smooth and high-quality outcome for the client.

Our in-house production house fabricated a full suite of branded materials, including vibrant poolside boards, large-format sponsor graphics, durable floor vinyls placed strategically around the venue, branded fabrics and bunting, and one of the event’s visual centrepieces – the winners podium. Every item was built to endure the humid poolside environment while maintaining crisp, clean visuals throughout the event.

Thanks to our dedicated installation team, every element was delivered and installed on schedule with zero disruption to event operations. By working seamlessly across departments, we maintained quality control at every stage and kept the client informed through a single point of contact – eliminating confusion and reducing turnaround times significantly. The success of this collaboration underscored the value of our all-in-house model in delivering memorable, high-impact sporting events with heart.
