WPR Agency

We have THREE very important work anniversaries to celebrate: Our resident wordsmith extraordinaire Thomas Went is marking five years with us. Invaluable on so many accounts, WPR wouldn't be the same without Tom and his legendary writing skills 👏 The creative genius that is Daniel Gabriel has spent a DECADE with us. In the last six years alone, Dan has been behind a staggering 29 of our industry awards. His hard work, commitment and drive to always go the extra mile are just some of the reasons he is a true WPR superstar 🥳 And finally, the indispensable Sally Price has been part of our agency almost since day one and, following a career break to raise her family, has been back at WPR for an incredible 11 years 🙌 Thank you for everything you do at WPR – a huge happy work anniversary to you all 🤩 #WorkAnniversaries #WorkCelebrations #AgencyLife

We're thrilled that PRWeek has named us best PR agency outside London at the PRWeek Awards 2024 🥳🏆 These are some of the most robust and rigorously judged awards in the industry, so it is incredibly rewarding to receive such respected recognition 🙌 Judges commented “This is clearly a company that values its staff and their welfare, with strong evidence of commitment to diversity and inclusion, and award wins in recognition of its workplace satisfaction scores." We couldn't be more proud. This is a whole agency award which celebrates the creativity and determination the whole team brings to work every day 😍 A HUGE well done to all 👏 #Awards #AwardWin #PRWeekAwards2024
