Freshwater

The team of more than 50 communications specialists who achieve collaboratively. The diversity of more than 2,000 past and current clients, many of whom have become friends. And the vision of founder and former BBC journalist, Steve Howell, more than 20 years ago.

What started as a PR company in Newport, South Wales in 1997 is now recognised as one of the UK’s leading communications agencies. Today it has a national reach, an integrated service offering and an enviable list of clients.

The early days focused on growth in Wales. In 2001, we worked alongside Team Wales to bring the 2010 Ryder Cup Golf Tournament to Newport. We then worked with the European Tour and Ryder Cup Europe to manage the PR in the lead up to, and during, the largest sporting event Wales has ever hosted.

Soon we were working side-by-side with other great brands too. For four years, we managed the store opening programme for John Lewis, from Cardiff to Cambridge and everywhere in-between. We’ve also been working with Specsavers for more than 15 years, and still count them as a client today.
