Scrolling through LinkedIn this week, I stopped for a few minutes and sat and watched a video to the end (something I very rarely do these days), and smiled. What was this completely engaging piece of content? Something particularly relevant to me, my interests or my job? No… it was Yorkshire Tea’s 5,000 biscuit domino […]
This year we are raising money for Katherine House Hospice, our chosen charity for 2018, and we’ve been busy fundraising.

The event is run by Katherine House Hospice, and this is their […]

Circulation figures for the last decade have shown the demise of hardcopy papers and magazines, and it seems almost every month sees the closure of another magazine (so long to the NME, mainstay of my youth). Online journalism was heralded as the future of publishing, […]
Last year for the first time, as a team we embarked on several successful fundraising events for our chosen charity The Oxford Children’s Hospital raising over £1,500 in total. This year, we have decided among ourselves to partner with another local charity The Katherine House Hospice in Adderbury. The Hospice offers specialist palliative and respite […]
With GDPR set to have a major impact on communications over the coming months, it’s difficult not to agree with Rana Foroohar’s description of data as “the new oil” of 2018, “the most valuable commodity of the digital age”. Her thoughts on changing regulations in the tech sector, the impact of millennials dominating our workplaces […]
Anyone familiar with Absolutely Fabulous will be aware of the running joke that many public relations events are held in a bar and full of fluff – but last night’s PUBlic Relations Oxford event, which I attended, was a great example of how a set of fantastic guest speakers and a willing exchange of […]
