Exeter PR firm in the running for two top awards

An Exeter-based PR company has been shortlisted for two top industry awards.

PR, Marketing and Design agency Astley Media is in the running for Outstanding Small Public Relations Consultancy of the Year and best Not-for-Profit Campaign of the Year, in the Chartered Institute of Public Relations PRide Awards 2016.

Its work with client blur Group on the launch of Tech South West is nominated for the Not-for-Profit award.

Based at Northernhay Place in Exeter, with clients across the South West and the country, Astley Media has already won Gold and Silver awards in 2013 and 2014.

Dan Pritchard, Managing Director at Astley Media, said: “The whole team take credit for this achievement. We’re competing with agencies from across the whole of the South of England and it’s lovely that our work for clients is being recognised by our industry peers.

“In a relatively short space of time, we’ve grown the company by focusing on what matters most – brilliant results for our clients.”

The shortlists are selected by a judging panel of UK industry experts with the winners announced at a prestigious ceremony later in the year.

Clients of the nine-strong team at Astley Media include Aviva Investors, blur Group, Cladco, Ladram Bay Holiday Park, Local Vets, Northcott Beaton, Sampson Hall, Stagecoach South West and East Midlands, The Training Partnership and a range of professional services organisations.

Caroline Orr, Marketing Director at Astley Media said: “This is a great achievement for Astley Media. We take immense pride in our work across PR, marketing and design. The team deserves credit for continually striving to be the very best and achieving consistently high standards.”
