When our Account Exec Alie asked 103 year old Bupa resident Margaret Phillips what her secret to a long-life was she was surprised to hear that she had spent many years of her life living in India and attributed it to spicy curries and a nip of whisky every night before dinner.

Our story got incredible coverage for Bupa in a whole host of influential titles, including The Scottish Sun, STV News, The Herald, The Courier, The Evening Times and The National, to name but a few.
