Dan Ridge

I've been working in the Design industry for almost 12 years, starting out at a prestigious design agency in Chelsea and now heading up the Design team at at Comic Relief, delivering their national campaigns - Red Nose Day and Sport Relief.

I’m a passionate creative who loves coming up with innovative ideas and delivering exciting campaigns and my optimism and enthusiasm helps to lead and inspire others to produce high quality design. I thrive on working across all mediums and my love and understanding of design, typography, digital, tech, photography, film and all things creative makes me dedicated to producing fully integrated campaigns.

Through my hobbies and voluntary work as a youth leader, I've gained experience in public speaking at multiple events which have involved comparing events, talks, preaches, bad acting and even worse dancing! This experience has helped me to deliver energetic talks and presentations both internally and externally to clients and conferences. I’m still not keen on the sound of my own voice but the enjoy the thrill of holding a microphone makes up for it.
