Orchard PR, the Channel Islands’ largest PR and communications consultancy, has won two Chartered Institute of Public Relations PRide Awards in the South of England and Channel Islands region.

The agency, which employs 13 people in Guernsey and works for clients mainly based in Guernsey, Jersey and the Isle of Man, was awarded Outstanding Public Relations Consultancy by the CIPR’s panel of judges at the awards evening in Bristol.

Orchard also picked up the award for Outstanding Mid-Sized Public Relations Consultancy.

Managing director Steve Falla, who was in Bristol to collect the awards, said: “Getting this recognition for our great team is a fitting reward for all their hard work on behalf of our clients. We continue to grow and develop, having moved to new purpose-designed offices and launched a PR apprenticeship recently. We’re thrilled that Orchard represents Guernsey on a wider PR industry stage.”

The PRide Awards recognise and reward outstanding work across nine UK regions and nations. They are a celebration of exceptional talent and a reflection of public relations best practice.

“Winning these awards proves that we are on the right track and reaffirms our belief that we can develop brilliant PR talent in Guernsey,” said Mr Falla.

“We benchmark ourselves against the highest professional standards and the awards confirm that we’re up there alongside the best practitioners in the UK.”

President of the CIPR, Sarah Pinch, said: “The Chartered Institute of Public Relations PRide Awards are a fantastic showcase of excellence in public relations across the UK’s regions and the Channel Islands.

“I am delighted to be able to congratulate Steve and the whole Orchard team for winning these two awards. The judges praised the Orchard team for their commitment to employee development and for leading the way on professional standards and qualifications; both subjects of great importance to the CIPR, the PR industry and Orchard’s clients.”
