Virgo once again supported the News Story of the Year (Broadcast) category in the 2025 MJA Awards.
In 2025 News Story of the Year (broadcast) was awarded to a team from BBC Ten O’Clock News for their work, Assisted Dying, North America.
They secured extraordinary access to several contributors, including a man who had chosen to die. This was done with great care, sensitivity and balance and was deeply informative on a debate of immense public interest and controversy. The detail and breadth of the report, and the commitment shown to exploring the issue, reflect the very best of public service broadcasting.

Introduction to Virgo
We are a global integrated healthcare communications and medical education agency. We combine the best of a healthcare specialist agency – responsible, scientific, life-changing work that is data-driven and code compliant — with trend setting thinking, driven by sharp strategies and bold creativity.
Above all, we are human.
Our teams know patients and people are at the centre of everything we do, so no matter how rigorous we are, how data-driven our work, or how much research we’ve done, we always seek to appeal to our audiences on a personal, human level. This is reflected in our culture – a happy, healthy place to be – and one that encourages us to bring the best of ourselves to any project.
For 20 years, we have grown a business we love, built on exceptional people and a focus on our Being Human culture. For seven years we have been part of the Golin Group and IPG network, which enables our agency to leverage everything you’d expect from a large agency, while keeping our own boutique spirit and personality.
Today we are an award-winning team of more than 100 healthcare specialists passionate about helping people to make better decisions about health and wellbeing. Whether it’s clinicians selecting the best treatment, patients understanding their disease better or empowering consumers to self-treat.
