Ctrl + Run. 🏃‍♂️

Our Web Developer, Alan, traded the keyboard for kilometres, taking on the Great Scottish Run and crossing the line in 2 hours 7 minutes.

Between coding and debugging sessions, Alan trained through early mornings and long evenings, proving that focus and determination don’t just live at the desk.

Congratulations, Alan!

Spirited, stylish and ready to pour. Hipflask’s premixed range made quite the splash at this year’s Royal Highland Show.

The Hipflask team tasked us with designing the labels for their trio of ready to drink flavours, as they expand into the premixed category. The challenge: connect the cans to the existing bottle range while giving each one a distinct, instantly recognisable look.

➡️ Blackcurrant Vodka & Lemonade
➡️ Raspberry Gin & Tonic
➡️ Golden Spiced Rum & Ginger Ale

Premixed, portable and perfect for adventure. Which flavour will you crack open first?

Active Dundee needed a brand that could match the energy of Hyrox. We delivered.

We refreshed their overall identity in 2024, and came together again this year to create Active 9BX - their impressive new Hyrox training club at Dundee’s Regional Performance Centre.

We were invited along to the official launch to see it all in action, but left the heavy lifting to the Hyrox pros!

We’re proud to sponsor Dundee High School FP Cricket Club, supporting 77 juniors as they get stuck into cricket. On Sunday, they batted it back and returned the favour.

Team Altar was treated to a friendly game on the club’s brand-new pitch and even enjoyed coaching from the Aussie pros themselves - all rounded off with a BBQ in the sun for a day truly out of the park.

From strategy sessions to creative reviews, Altar Head of Digital, Mandy O’Neill, keeps our campaigns moving and our ideas sharp.

Consistently setting the bar high, Judith Maguire, our Finance Manager, has passed her AAT Level 3 in Bookkeeping with Distinction. Scoring 90% and 91% across two exams, she finished top of her class at Dundee and Angus College.

At Altar, continual learning isn’t just a value, it’s a strategy. It keeps us sharp, agile and ready for what’s next.

In the first half of 2025 alone, our team logged over 1,452 hours of development time. Investing in our people is how we invest in the future of our work.

What a way to lead by example, Congratulations Judith!

Arbroath’s Neighbourhood Board has been very busy, and so have we.

As one of 20 UK towns awarded funding through the UK Government’s Plan for Neighbourhoods initiative, Our Arbroath have been delivering a series of events designed to gather input from the local community and help shape how the funding is used.

Featured on STV News, Radio Tay and in The Courier UK, our combined media activity has already reached an incredible audience of over 3.5 million, driving awareness and ultimately attendance at their first two community workshops sessions.

Alongside this, our tailored social campaign has helped amplify the message, increasing reach, engagement and follower numbers by up to 900% across all digital channels. A true Arbroath smokie. 🔥

An expert at balancing deadlines and dissertations, Altar Client Services Manager, Rachel Brannan, has graduated from Abertay University with a BA in Digital Marketing & Business Management.

Joining us in early 2024, Rachel immediately made an impact on our team, leading key client projects and fully embracing Altar ways of working. Named a co-owner through our Employee Ownership Trust in January, she now brings the same passion and dedication to her role as a full-time team member.

Rachel said: “As a single parent returning to study, balancing work, life and university has been a challenge to say the least, but an incredibly rewarding one.

“I’ve been so lucky to have the support of Altar throughout my journey. The team hasn’t just accommodated my goals, they’ve championed them. From day one, they’ve created space for me to learn, grow and succeed both at work and in my studies.”

Bold and built to connect - Abertay University's 2026 undergraduate guide is live.

This is the third year we’ve partnered with Abertay to design, artwork and project manage their flagship publication. A key recruitment tool, the guide has evolved to become a tailored experience for each prospective student.

The 2026 edition includes a beautifully produced print version and for the third year, a digital version configured to let users tailor content to their own course interests.

Originally a three-year contract, we’re delighted to have been retained by the Abertay Marketing team for another year. A post-grad, if you will.

There’s plenty to about this EO Day.

Since becoming employee-owned in 2021, we’ve built a culture where everyone has a say - and a stake - in how we work and where we’re headed. This shared ownership enriches everything we do, from our thinking and creativity to the care we put into each project.

So Happy , from one of Scotland’s only EO creative consultancies😊.
