In with the new
Gatwick Express invested in new gates for both Victoria and Gatwick Airport stations, which opened on 31 December 2011, so we used this image to convey the ‘out with the old and in with the new’ message.

Bonkers for conkers
We used the game of conkers to make a great story for Hovertravel. It was on the Isle of Wight that the first use of horse chestnuts was recorded in 1848, so both hovercraft and conkers were invented on the Island. We also used conkers for a seasonal image for the Meteor meet and greet [...]

Positive and measureable results
Some positive results just in for a couple of clients, demonstrating that engaging and creative PR can be a significant part of promoting a business. Hovertravel has recorded their highest ever market share in their 67 year history and Heathrow Express had a 12% increase in passenger numbers.

All that jazz
Chineham Park refurbished the amenity area of their business park, creating a continental style, al fresco setting for everyone to enjoy their coffees and lunches. To celebrate the official opening of the new Spindlewood facility we organised a lunchtime jazz concert, took some press shots and showed the media.

Our client, Hovertravel, is launching a series of combo offers for Isle of Wight residents and the first is a combined bar snack and cinema ticket – redeemable at Grosvenor Casino in Gunwharf Quays – for under £10. The Casino has loaned Hovertravel a table for their Ryde terminal so we had some fun yesterday [...]
A rubbish press trip
Yesterday we embarked on the long awaited rubbish press trip, giving the exclusive story of how waste generated at Chineham Park in Basingstoke goes on an interesting journey. Only two journalists were allowed on the trip so they could have the dedicated attention of the combined MEPC & Grundon senior executives. Without revealing any of [...]
