A Drop in the Ocean is the podcast amplifying ocean-caring voices. Host Stu Davies speaks with ocean changemakers, innovators and digital experts to explore how ocean-focused organisations share their stories, overcome challenges, and grow their impact.
In this episode of A Drop in the Ocean, I sit down with Alyx Elliott – senior campaign strategist, former campaign leader at organisations including Oceana, World Animal Protection and multiple global charities – to explore what it really takes to create campaigns that drive meaningful change.
With more than 20 years in campaigning, Alyx has led teams tackling everything from overfishing, ghost gear and bottom trawling to oil and gas, animal welfare, and public policy. Today, she helps organisations pressure-test their campaign strategies, remove barriers, and build campaigns that are actually fit for purpose.
In this conversation we dive into:
👉 Why most campaigns lose focus before real change happens
👉 The power of insights – not just data, but truly understanding people
👉 Why strategy needs constant review, not a once-a-year workshop
👉 The uncomfortable truth about coalition-building and brand ego
👉 Why winning a policy isn’t enough if nobody measures real-world impact
👉 How campaign leaders can stay focused, resilient, and relentless
This is a brilliant conversation for campaigners, charity leaders, marketers, communicators, and anyone trying to create change in a noisy world.
Because real campaigns don’t just make noise.
They move people, systems, and policy.
