Testimonials:

“You and your team’s input really made a huge difference and it was fascinating to watch our group gel around the picture you painted. Thanks again for your support and for staying focussed on the end game when we tried to move away.”

Cobb PR have been supporting Hastings College for the past two years.
Initially they worked with the college on the consultation process for both the new college but also its new name.
The £93 million new college needed an organisation that understood how communities and successful consultation worked. Cobb PR did an excellent job as the college sailed through all of the processes with little difficulty.
More recently Cobb PR has worked with the college on its reputation and we have been extremely successful. We have certainly in the last year had much good press in the local papers and through Cobb PR have had significant TV coverage both nationally and regionally.
Cobb PR continues to support the college during its new build and are presently organising events to positively promote the college. Cobb PR have provided the college with outstanding expertise, creativity and innovation and have now become part of the team. Their service and support has been invaluable and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Cobb PR understands exactly our need to be a part of the local community and works with us to raise our profile and enhance our reputation in the towns and cities where we have offices they look after for us. We also like the fact that they do not wait for us to call them, they come to us with ideas and opportunities.

There has been some excellent feedback from tenants and park visitors for the recent Pirates of the Caribbean event in 2007. This was considered to be an imaginative promotion that benefited every tenant on the park.

Cobb PR is engaged by Southern Water Services Ltd to provide Public Relations support to a number of high profile, multi-million pound capital work schemes.

In working with Cobb PR, I have found them to be professional and highly competent in managing the public relations aspect of this scheme, as well as in their dealings with both members of the public and the media.  They have an excellent understanding of the water industry and, in particular, have been effective in helping deliver a robust and positive message for an essential project in very challenging circumstances.

We have been running weekly stories in our evening news programmes under the banner of  “Water Watch”, and have put a number of ideas to them about items we wish to film and stories we want to cover.

In every case Cobb PR have been professional, competent and also imaginative in their suggestions and responses. This has helped us very much with our coverage. They were instrumental in allowing us to film down the Friston borehole, something which enabled us to demonstrate to our viewers in a very visual just how low current water levels are.

Having worked at BBC South East for nearly five years, I have had many dealings with Cobb PR and can confirm that it is a very pro-active and professional outfit. As many of the staff are former journalists, they know what makes a good story, and in particular what will make interesting television.

I am just writing to say thank you for the excellent job you did for us. Thanks to all our hard work we were featured on The Guardian Online (Dec 05) and Good Housekeeping (March 06) and we’ve been guests of the day and had extensive coverage on BBC Southern Counties Radio (Dec 05). Following The Argus (Jan 06) picked up our story and featured us on page three in January.
Thanks again. We were really impressed by the fast, efficient, professional and best of all, non-schmoozy approach.

Just a line to say many thanks for all the help provided at the recent charity event. The amount raised is in the region of £7,000 and I am sure this is as a direct result of the work carried out by Cobb PR.

I am writing to thank you for your work that you have undertaken in recent months relating to the East Grinstead Area Action Plan. Your PR support helped us to meet particularly tight deadlines. Your assistance with the summary leaflet and exhibition panels allowed us to embark on the extensive programme of consultation that followed the publication of the main documents.
Ian Moody
Senior Planning Officer
Mid Sussex District Council

 

I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation for all your hard work on the Newhaven scheme. You did a brilliant job with almost no notice and with your usual high level of professionalism and enthusiasm. I am sure we will continue to rely on the great service you provide.

Cobb PR was commissioned to write and deliver a two-day media training event. The event was to explain the workings of the local media and give us greater confidence in our dealings with journalists.
The training sessions were well received by all delegates and the feedback scores were high. The course was varied, stimulating and, at times, challenging. I am very pleased to recommend the training services of Cobb PR to you.
Maria Garside
Public Relations Manager
Drum Housing Association

 

Cobb PR was recruited by the National Housing Federation on a three month contract to act as media relation advisers on our most challenging communications and rebranding project to date, iN Business for Neighbourhoods.
The team members were professional and competent, and worked well with the Federation’s own communications team to ensure our message to the media was communicated effectively at all levels. They also ensured key spokespeople received comprehensive media training and support.
