Facebook has launched an advertising offensive in the UK in a bid to promote the “connections and the different kinds of friendship that enrich our lives” on and off the tool.

The social media giant launched its first British TV spot  in an online Post  on 14th February – making it to TV screens during coverage of a Uefa Champions League game, with a second spot airing on 17 February.

Faebook’s in-house creative team, The Factory, created the campaign titled “our friends” to highlight how the tool ‘creates and sustains friendships’.

The ad marks Facebook’s first TV spots tailored to a UK audience.

The TV and online spots are being complimented by outdoor ads in Oxford Street station in London.

A Facebook spokesman said: Facebook is a place where friends go to make meaningful connections. This regional campaign celebrates those connections and the different kinds of friendship that enrich our lives both on and off Facebook.”
