As part of this, the company have launched a campaign that shows varying depictions of what makes a family.

The advert shows an older couple with their dogs.

A mother and father with two children, but with a stay at home dad.

A same-sex couple.

And finally the father and son who narrate the advert are shown to be a single parent family.

The advert has sparked some controversy. An online petition has been created opposing the depiction of same sex couples as a "family".

However, Twitter users have been using the campaign's hashtag to express their support of the advert and various family units.
