I do love the rich mix of stories and media outlets that the mighty Clearly PR team work with for clients. This is a wonderful example for one of the UK's oldest charities (850 years to be precise) - a proper heart warmer: bathecho.co.uk/news/community…

Ed Miliband could prove himself to be a master at #PR if he manages to successfully shift perceptions and influence a change in stance among objectors to Labour's clean energy agenda. It will do his #reputation no end of good, too. theguardian.com/business/2024/…

An editor of a trade publication recently posted a 'request' for businesses to stop sending press releases announcing their new #BCorp status. With almost 3,000 certified businesses in the UK, it's harder to get media attention. But we know how to do it: clearlypr.co.uk/insights/how-t…
