Abstract

Background Get Up, Get Out, Get Active (GUGOGA) is a social marketing campaign designed by Active Gloucestershire to promote physical activity within Gloucestershire. Methods A mixed-methods approach including a quantitative and qualitative component was employed. Data analysis was driven by a need to understand the attitudes, opinions and perceptions of the local professionals concerning the campaign and to investigate the perceived impact and perception of GUGOGA for people visiting the Active Gloucestershire website. Findings Qualitative data analysis revealed four key themes which encapsulated the perceptions of local professionals who had come into contact with the GUGOGA campaign. These represented a set of interrelated themes concerning the perceived effectiveness of campaign. These four themes identify the complexity of establishing and running social marketing campaigns. Conclusion Further evaluation is required to better understand the efficacy of the campaign in the longer term.
