About us

Over 20 years we have earned a reputation for delivering down to earth but highly effective communications campaigns in the north and across the UK market.

We believe that PR has a pivotal role to play in the commercial activities of an organisation, and most of our PR campaigns are driven by three business imperatives: to give our clients stand-out in their markets; to enhance their reputations amongst all their publics; and to help sell products and services.

That heritage is reflected in our client retention and the wide range of awards that we have won.

Ptarmigan remains the only consultancy outside London to have won PR Week's Consultancy of the Year Award.

In addition Ptarmigan has won more than 24 other awards including the CIPR team of the year award.

Now the acquisition of Ptarmigan by Bell Pottinger allows us to extend our reach across the north of England and to harness the resources of the UK's largest independent PR consultancy.
