Animated commercial set to the theme song of the Pink Panther. A police man is walking around noticing various items painted pink in an otherwise black and white setting. The pink panther walks out from behind a tree with a paint brush. He touches a fountain, and a fish tank and the water turns pink. He motions to touch a fire hydrant, but loses steam until he sees a table with pink packets on it. He approaches and pours the contents of one packet into his mouth. Completely refreshed he paints a mural of Sweet’N Low “Think Pink” on the side of a building.

These include navigating chronic conditions like Crohn’s disease and endometriosis, living with ADHD or limb difference, and surviving cancer--alongside a powerful account from Black Ferns international rugby player Ruby Tui on mental health.
The launch comes as new research from Bupa reveals that 82% of people believe that talking about health experiences can support physical and mental health. Despite this, nearly one in two people (49%) say they have avoided addressing a health concern.
