The Law Gazette is highlighting an important issue we’ve raised directly with HMRC alongside STEP: the unfair inheritance tax burden facing families affected by the Infected Blood scandal. Read the full article here: www.lawgazette.co.uk/news/infecte...

Hello and happy Friday. I keep neglecting to come on here. Who is still around?

I'm looking to speak to people in the UK about the impact of finances on mental health/security/relationships, for Big Issue. If you'd like to share your story with me, please email [email protected]. #journorequest

#journorequest before my nine-hour (!) bus journey today: I'm looking for case study of someone who bought a home and then found out it was a flood risk. And a case study of someone who undertook a survey that showed climate risk and still bought it.

The government has now opened bidding for its AI growth zones - I'm looking for comments on what it could mean for the North? Email in bio! #journorequest #prrequest

Love radio

Today is one of those rare days when I seem to be doing a year's worth of work in one day. PR on fire baby :-)

Hey, I am looking for your questions around pensions for next week’s Money Box Live. Maybe you’re 18 and wondering what age to start, maybe you’re 50 and getting a bit anxious. Maybe you want to check your investments are ethical. Maybe something else entirely! Email me [email protected]

Would love to get Chat/emails from anyone who's removed their professional account from Instagram or Facebook, particularly journalists, writers and authors You can message me here or at [email protected] #journorequest

Any tips on good community group platforms? My courses are currently on Thinkific & I have Facebook groups. Want to have an alternative to using Facebook. Heard good things about Heartbeat. Any recommendations?

Any recommendations on where to get logo embroidery patches?

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... As a small #PRAgency we've always paid our interns and always will.

When people say branding, I see PR.

Every time I see a talking head video I just think 'great lighting' and then move on. Anyone else feel left behind in a supposedly video-first social world. I like words.

Unpause is my word for the year. Took some time to think about it but feel ready to get going and crack on.

2025 is my 18th birthday year running my very own small but brilliant #PRAgency. Well done me 😀 Still feel like a start up in so many ways, and have so many grand plans to crack on with. #PR #Comms

44,000 callers to @HMRCgovuk in 2023/24 were cut off after waiting 70 minutes to be answered. Average wait for those who do get through was 23 minutes, says @CommonsPAC bit.ly/4jneOpp HMRC boss says claims ‘baseless’ even though they are figures it provided.

Ok, so need some help. My first novel is coming in Feb (it's been cooking away for years) with themes of social media, parent-child trauma and video game toys. I'm ready to send out galleys for review, but don't have a strong book/writer/reviewer network. Who should I send it to? Shares welcome.

Anyone working with any Nordic fashion brands? I'm working on a large retail report and keen to hear from brands (large and small) and retail tech in this area. Thank you! #journorequest #futureofretail

Such sad news about Linda Nolan. I saw her in Blood Brothers and she was incredible. Sleep tight. ❤️❤️❤️

Writers, musicians, actors & other creators strongly oppose upending copyright law to favour AI companies, as suggested in the UK's AI Opportunities Action Plan. As Kate Mosse says, seeking economic growth "cannot be on the basis of theft of our work". www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Got a great idea for a drama series. Do I write it first as a book or straight as a drama? Got no idea, but #ImWriting
