CASE STUDY
From Legacy Story to National Reach.
The Story
Leonard Cheshire, the UK’s largest voluntary sector provider supporting disabled people, marked its 70th anniversary alongside the RAF100 centenary with “Leonard Cheshire: A Pilot’s Story” an invitation-only aviation art exhibition at Mall Galleries in London.
Created by renowned aviation artist Graham Singleton, the exhibition brought to life Leonard Cheshire’s extraordinary journey from one of the RAF’s most decorated bomber pilots to a pioneering humanitarian.
Tuesday Media was brought in to ensure the exhibition reached beyond the gallery walls. By connecting the exhibition to the wider national moment around RAF100 and amplifying the cultural and historical significance of Cheshire’s story, we positioned it as a story of leadership, legacy and impact.
The result was targeted coverage across arts, military, and broadcast media, helping to reintroduce Leonard Cheshire’s story to new audiences and reinforce the charity’s ongoing mission.
‘We’re absolutely delighted with Tuesday…’
