We work with clients who want to change society for the better.

“Harpswood were ambitious in their ideas for our launch and delivered them brilliantly. They worked with us to get our messaging right, came up with the concept for a launch video and crucially secured a double page spread in a national newspaper - among other impactful coverage - to generate real interest and engagement in what we are setting out to do. They have become a part of our organisation rather than an agency.”

“Octopus don't use agencies, for creative or media, as I believe efficiency and creativity come from within. I'm lucky enough to work with an incredibly gifted internal team, but somehow, James has always persuaded me that a PR agency should be my exception to the rule. And you’re not just sold a dream - he hires people who share his attitude. He’s worked with me to steer Octopus's PR from 50k customers to more than 3million. He has been a pivotal comms lead in our global expansion.”

“I’ve been surprised at how much more seriously people take a piece of news if it's in the press. A few weeks ago, I told a few friends about the Google.org funding and they were only mildly impressed, but when they saw it in the media those same people were suddenly like, "OMG, this is so amazing! Congratulations!” It's almost like it hasn't happened unless it's in the press.”

“Some PR firms can overpromise and underdeliver. Working with Harpswood has changed all that. Harpswood’s team is full of people who actually get off their a***, chase, hustle and get results. We wanted both regional and national news coverage - articles in everything from the Loughborough Echo to the Guardian have met that brief. Coverage on ITV and various regional radio stations have been a huge bonus. Harpswood is a brilliant and creative ‘can-do’ partner.”

“Working with Harpswood has been one of the highlights of the last year. We were concerned that our project was difficult to communicate – we were rebranding and evolving rather than launching as a completely new entity. The Harpswood team were honest about what could be achieved and thought through all the issues before coming up with a smart strategy. They then delivered well beyond what we could have hoped for. Getting six minutes on prime time BBC Breakfast to talk about issues of worker protection and job fraud put JobsAware on the map from day one.”

“Harpswood has done a fantastic job helping us build our brand and develop a reputation in the media. Their brilliance is in understanding how communications forms part of an organisation’s strategy and putting that into action every day in the media opportunities they work to create. The team is flexible, hard-working and has a laser-like focus on results - they are a joy to work with.”

“Harpswood has worked tirelessly and patiently with us as colleagues and advisers to such an extent that it’s often easy to forget they have other clients! The support they have given us has been second to none. Their professionalism, guidance and industry network have been critical in helping us to establish and nurture relationships with media that frankly we should not have been able to as a small, early stage climate tech organisation. An excellent partner all round.”

“We’ve been so impressed by the team’s ability to drive momentum and to generate impactful PR coverage. There have been a few occasions where we’ve had to pivot due to delays on projects outside of our control and the team has been quick to find other ways forward with a focus on generating a drumbeat of quality media coverage for us. This is a big year for our business and we knew that we needed the right PR agency to help the world hear about our mission. We know we’ve made the right choice - and we can see why Harpswood has such impressive client retention.”

“Harpswood was our first experience of working with a PR agency and they impressed us from the start. The team immediately took the wheel, guiding us to get the most out of our partnership and showcasing us in the media. Quality coverage was published within weeks including a stand-out feature in The Times business section - I even had messages from my network saying they'd spotted the prominent photo of me in the paper! Harpswood clearly cares about their clients and that attention shines through.”
