Taunton is set to shine brighter than ever with the launch of an exciting new campaign celebrating the town’s vibrant community, rich culture, and thriving independent businesses.
The initiative, called ‘Shout About Taunton,’ has been unveiled by Taunton Town Council to promote the town as a fantastic place to live, visit, and invest in. The campaign will showcase the unique qualities that make Taunton special through striking photography, captivating videos, dynamic social media content, visitor guides, and partnerships with local enterprises.
Hatched, a Taunton-based creative agency, is leading the project after being selected through a competitive tender process. The council highlighted Hatched’s deep local connections and community understanding as key reasons for choosing them.

Samantha Maloney, Marketing Director at Hatched, expressed her enthusiasm: “We’re incredibly proud to collaborate with Taunton Town Council on ‘Shout About Taunton.’ From our studio in the town centre, we witness daily the creativity, culture, and community spirit that set this town apart. Our goal is to share that energy with the world, boosting local pride and attracting more visitors and investment.”
The campaign aims not only to raise Taunton’s profile across the South West and beyond but also to stimulate economic growth and enhance community involvement.
Councillor Bev Fernandes, Chair of the Town Council’s Community and Place Committee, said: “Taunton offers a remarkable blend of history, community, sport, culture, business, and natural beauty. ‘Shout About Taunton’ is about boldly sharing our town’s story and inviting everyone to be part of its future. Having a local agency bring this to life adds authenticity and passion to the message.”
The campaign has already begun rolling out initial activities, with excitement building towards Christmas and a full year of promotional content planned throughout 2026.
