Webster Wickham
creative director and partner
bwa was founded in 1972 and Webster Wickham has managed the company for over 25 years. Inspired by his interest in social and environmental issues and experience working with Greenpeace International, Webster has an ambitious vision that fuels all bwa client projects. 80% of our work is based on recommendation, which is built on Websters experience working with government agencies, international charities and ethical business.
After many years in Clerkenwell, London, Webster moved bwa to the literary hub of Hay-on-Wye in 2005, where he built an office that reflects his environmental principles. From the paper we choose to the suppliers we use; from food waste to electrical goods disposal; from energy consumption to community support: we work to these founding principles.
