It’s coming to the end of my first year as founder of Magnify PR – and it’s been quite a year.
📈 We’ve helped our client GB News secure record-breaking website growth, making them the fastest growing news website in the country.
🗣 We supported former Eastenders actress Brooke Kinsella MBE in a major nationwide campaign to raise awareness of knife crime.

🏚 We helped Jonathan Rolande firmly establish himself as one of the UK’s most respected property experts.
📰 In total we placed thousands of stories across the mainstream media on behalf of our clients or members of the public who needed help communicating their story.
🔵 Closer to home, we joined the executive board of the Chester Business Club helping to promote the role the city can play in supporting growing businesses like Magnify PR.
🔟 Speaking of growth, from a standing start we grew to a position whereby we now support 10 clients; and we have big plans to expand into 2024.
💻 Valued clients include Connectus Business Solutions Limited, who we supported in the announcement of a number of key business acquisitions.
💚 Another client, the British Metals Recycling Association, asked us to help co-ordinate a string of their awareness raising campaigns.

📺 We managed the PR for the announcement of former Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s first broadcasting job – as a new host on GB News.
📰 We also sensitively handled the release of the news that legendary TV anchor Alistair Stewart is battling dementia.
📢 We helped launch a string of new TV shows, including the Dinosaur Hour, Camilla Tominey Today and Good Afternoon Britain.
🏦 We ran PR for Nigel Farage’s trailblazing campaign on Natwest/Coutts, which led the news for weeks: and carries on…
🏆 We placed interviews with our client Eamonn Holmes in a string of publications in a year which saw his GB News Breakfast show win a major TV award.
👨⚕️ We worked with the Laura Hyde Foundation & Liam Barnes to communicate the lifeline work they do.
📚 And we also made time to release a new book – the story of my grandfather Steve Boston based on a manuscript he penned before he died.
Thanks to all our amazing clients, partners and associates for making 2023 so special. In 2024 the principles which our agency is built on – magnifying the expertise of our clients, will remain at the heart of all we do.
