Jungle Public Relations Ltd, Norfolk’s only public relations agency to win a Gold CIPR* PRide Award 2007, will be representing the county and going through to the 2008 President’s Grand Prix Awards final in Birmingham on March 6th 2008. Jungle Public Relations Ltd won the prestigious Gold Award for ‘Best Use of Media Relations’ for its client BeWILDerwood - the tree house adventure park in Wroxham, which the company launched last year, attracting over 6,000 visitors across the UK on its first weekend of opening. Kate Abbot, director of Jungle Public Relations Ltd said: “Winning the Gold Award for Best Use of Media Relations is a fantastic accolade for us and it has given us huge kudos in being the best in the travel and tourism sector of public relations. We have been asked to pitch for several national travel and tourism companies based in the UK and even America which is an excellent testament to the campaign we carried out for our client. We will be competing against thirteen other Gold finalists within the ‘Best Media Relations’ category so if we do win, it will again be a fantastic accolade." CIPR President Elisabeth Lewis-Jones said, “The Grand Prix Awards are all about celebrating…celebrating the good PR work being carried out across the UK; celebrating the contribution public relations makes to business and society; and celebrating the sharing of best practice and the raising of industry standards. The President’s Grand Prix not only allows all PRide Awards winners to take part in a national competition but it also enables the PR industry to showcase and celebrate our growing, professional and highly sophisticated industry.” For further information please contact Kate Abbot W: www.junglepr.com ; T: 01508 528739, email -ends- Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) Editor's Notes* Information about the CIPR President’s Grand Prix Awards The CIPR PRide Awards 2007 – the only PR awards scheme in the UK for the nations and regions - are now at a close.
