A Chartered PR Practitioner with over 25 years of experience

My name is Lindsay Colbeck, a PR and strategic communications specialist from the North West of England.
With me on your side you will benefit from specialist skills and knowledge, an enviable PR contact list, my commercial focus, and my wider services.

Continually learning

Keeping you ahead of the competition

I entered the world of freelancing in 2015. The 15 years before I started my own business, I gained valuable experience working for large corporations. Throughout my career I have always valued self-development and it’s this commitment to learning and keeping up to date with the latest industry knowledge and targeted techniques that has resulted in me being awarded Chartership by the Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR).

My personal approach

A rounded and authoritative (yet friendly) experience

To get you optimum results I combine four elements. My commitment to give you my complete focus and attention. My experience of working in several sectors to create for you an effective PR strategy in line with your goals and vision. To utilise the strong relationships that I have built with journalists and media contacts. And my guarantee to respect your budget and keep track of every penny – working with charities has embedded this crucial mindset.

A commercial focus

Bringing your stories to life

Being a consultant means that I’m flexible to your needs. It could be that you need someone like me to be an extension to your existing workforce, or it could be that you need to bring in a some additional capacity or expertise to support you with a specific campaign or project. No matter how you want to work with me, I will share your employees’ dedication to your organisation’s success and work as part of a team. You benefit from gaining a specialist and freeing up others to focus on what they do best.

I know what makes a news story and how to tell it.

You probably have more stories to share than you think. I’ve a talent for uncovering stories that will be of interest to your customers, your target audience, or your potential donors, and finding the perfect angle that will genuinely resonate and influence them to take action.
