The hard work has paid off - our charity client is all set up for their exhibition stand at this week.

We’ve taken care of the design and print of the bunting, posters, display signage and digital screens, making sure every key message and audience was included. It’s looking great and it’s such a fantastic opportunity for the team to reach new families who need them and attract new supporters to help fund their work to support bereaved children and their families. We love working with this charity and have the privilege of speaking to the families who come to them.

THIS TIME LAST WEEK…
All summer, ellenor, the hospice for North Kent, has been hosting an art trail - with these amazing bears placed around Dartford and Bluewater for people to find.
The story the trail links to is We’re Going On A Bear Hunt 🐻 🐾 Artists painted them, schools and the community got involved and it’s been a massive project to raise both funds for hospice care but also awareness for people in Dartford to know that ellenor is their local hospice.
It was around 2 years in the making and I’ve seen some of the work that’s gone into it - there will be so much more I didn’t!
It was great to be at the auction - which raised £120k on the night!

There’s so much more to an exhibition stand than a pull-up banner, pens and flyers…which is what many clients have asked us for in the past. 👀 At last week’s Kent Construction Expo we saw so many brilliant stands!
⭐️But with time to plan, a bit of creativity and budget, you can create something stand out that gets people over for those all-important chats!
😀If a stand looks great and the people on it are warm and engaging then you should be chatting all day! 🗓️Start to think about your exhibition about 3-6 months in advance so you have time to create something exciting. 💡If you’re exhibiting often, then having an exhibition kit is a good idea - full of bits to dress each stand. ☎️Get in touch next time you need help with an exhibition - we’ve got ideas and love to plan!

Kent Construction Show - always a brilliant place to network and catch up with people!
This year I was on an exhibition stand with our client . They’re the Chamber’s Chosen Charity so we were meeting new people and letting them know what the charity does and what support they need.
We met some very generous businesses and made some fantastic connections!

Friday night was another AMAZING night at Twilight Walk - their biggest fundraiser of the year and didn’t disappoint! 🧡 My home town came out in force 🧡 1700 taking part 🧡 People watching on doorsteps watching 🧡Donations being given as we went! 🧡People wearing orange T-shirts, tutus, flashing lights! 🎤 I was there as part of the media team supporting with the PR effort doing one of my favourite things - talking to people about why they were there walking 8km to support ellenor. So much love for this wonderful hospice that cared for my grandad 20 years ago 🦋

Media day!
Here I am at the Battle of Britain Memorial near Folkestone, with Meridian. Squinting into the sunlight on a beautiful day over there this week for Battle of Britain Day.

Whenever a client has press in, there are two roles for me as media officer:
⭐ Make sure the media have what they want and get info fast - they don't have time to hang about! The right interviewees, printed press release, info sheet if needed, and help to film and photograph in the places they want to be, liaising with the client to ensure it's OK.

⭐ The second role is to support the client with media. I've usually arranged their arrival time and found out what they need before they get there, having offered them various news, interview opportunities and views to film/photograph.
If someone is being interviewed, we talk about the messaging and do a mini rehearsal if needed. I always stand nearby - either behind the camera for TV or next to the journalist interviewing for radio, so that my interviewer is not alone.
I make sure they look good - tidy hair, straight name badge, clothing sorted; I hold their bags, glasses, hat, water bottle etc and generally make sure they only have to get on with the interview.
For a live, I'm listening to what they're saying to make sure it's edited correctly later and for pre-record, and taking notes for a post event story for a press release, website news story, social media post or other channel.
I'm ready to jump in if my interviewee goes off message, either through nerves or because of the questioning. I can't tell you how many great soundbites I've ruined for media, but saved the client on!
It's not as simple as just letting media in to get on with it - there's preparation before they get there, both with the media and the client, then managing everyone on the day so that we all get the best from it.

If media is there, looking after them goes a long way and for clients. Having someone to manage them makes their job slightly easier to concentrate on, because talking on camera is hard - and that's why I stay behind the scenes!

For the media, I make their day a little easier too - I'll even grab them a cuppa...it's a case of do what's needed!
