About this Event

Join me for my first PR Meets Press event, where I’ll be joined by Maisie Bonvingdon and Sarah Finley for a panel discussion and Q&A session.

Maisie and Sarah have written for a wide range of publications, including Vogue Business, The Financial Times, The Times Luxx, The Telegraph, The i Paper, Women’s Health, Condé Nast Traveller, HELLO!, Glamour, Who What Wear, Marie Claire, BBC and Good Housekeeping, among many others.

We’ll be discussing key seasonal topics that are particularly relevant to PRs right now, including Black Friday and Christmas, AI, pitching and other things PRs need to know.

The event is a great opportunity for PR professionals to network, ask questions and gain valuable insights directly from Maisie and Sarah during the Q&A.

Please arrive at the venue at 10:30 so I can sign you in.

Drinks and snacks will be available at the event. If you have any allergies or dietary requirements, please contact Jo in advance, before 28 October, so we can make the necessary arrangements.

Thank you, and I’m really looking forward to meeting you all and welcoming you to the event!
