We are delighted to announce that Holyrood PR has been shortlisted for five awards in the 2013 CIPR Scotland PRide Awards (our industry ‘Oscars’) – including the prized Outstanding Public Relations Consultancy of the Year category.

As well as scooping a record number of shortlistings at the awards, we also had extra cause to celebrate as we were short-listed for every category we entered.

We are now in the running for the Corporate and Business Communications Campaign, Consumer Relations Campaign, Best Sporting Campaign and Low Budget Campaign awards, as well as the Outstanding Consultancy title. See here for full shortlisting

Co-Founder/Director Raymond Notarangelo said: “We know we are delivering superb results week in-week out for our clients through our creativity, top quality story-spotting and sheer hard work, so it’s doubly pleasing to see these campaigns now acclaimed as being among the finest in Scotland over the last 12 months.

“To have all our entries win a shortlisting demonstrates the consistent and diverse skills of the agency across a range of varied and complex sectors.

“But it’s a particularly exceptional achievement for the agency overall to be considered as one of the very best in Scotland through our shortlisting in Outstanding Consultancy category.”

Commenting on this year’s shortlist announcement, chair of CIPR Scotland Laura Sutherland MCIPR said: “The CIPR Scotland PRide Awards celebrate the very best in public relations from across the country.

“This year’s entries were all of an incredibly high standard, highlighting the industry leading work that is taking place right here in Scotland, despite the impact of the economy in recent times.

“I would like to congratulate all of those who have been shortlisted for an award; their success demonstrates their exemplary achievements in such a thriving profession, and recognises the impact they have made in their organisation and on behalf of clients.”

The awards will be announced at a ceremony in Glasgow on October 24.
