Today we are featuring two volunteers together as they are
husband and wife. Vicky Paterson has
been videoing our events to help promote SATRO for a while now and having seen
the passion and enthusiasm SATRO has for what we do introduced her husband
Andrew to us. This is their story…
Vicky is a videographer and experienced marketing
professional using video to help businesses communicate with their customers
and utilise the power of online video. Videolynks create high quality, cost
effective promotional video for use on business websites, YouTube channels and
other social media.
“I initially got
involved with SATRO through a networking event and volunteered to make several
short videos to help SATRO engage people in the fantastic work they do and try
to gain support and interest. It is a treat to film the young people and
volunteers and capture their enthusiasm and excitement at the numerous
inspiring events they run. The more I discover about SATRO the more I want to
support them and now I also volunteer at the Career Speed Dating events.”

“I heard about SATRO
through my wife who had got in touch
with SATRO via networking to help with video and my kids were involved in
workshops at their school. Both were really impressed with the ambition and the
ability to bring STEM to life and I wanted to help SATRO reach a wider and
relevant audience and communicate what they had to offer.”
Andrew then got involved by offering to use his creative
skills to re-brand SATRO’s identity: “by
looking at their identity I wanted to visually and verbally convey the energy
and excitement of all those involved. We have really enjoyed giving SATRO
a fresh new look and some ideas that will spark more involvement. We really
believe in SATRO's vision in offering a wider view on what is possible for a
career after school. As designers and creatives we are always looking for the
latest and fresh ideas and we are glad to help in the search to inspire the
next generation of engineers and creative thinkers”
Andrew is currently Creative Director at Embrace (www.thisisembrace.com) and has enjoyed
working with clients such as: The Arts Club, BBC Wales, British Airways,
FIFA, GSK, ITV, JPMorgan, Microsoft (Ireland), NatWest, National Trust, Nestlé,
O2, Panasonic, RBS, Royal Mail, Sainsbury’s, The O2, UBS, UEFA, Unilever.
With over 19 years of working with brands, Andrew has been

Having worked for leading design agencies such as Coley
Porter Bell and Lambie-Nairn, and well known brands, Andrew has worked with
