And to ensure it can properly resource its growing client base, RAW has recruited highly experienced PR practitioner and influencer Cheska Hull.
Commenting on behalf of RAW, co-director Hayley Reynolds, says: “We're delighted to not only be growing in line with our current clients, but also adding to our portfolio of award-winning businesses which are leading the way in their various categories."
Hayley went on to say: "We're in the fortunate position of only working with those who we truly believe in, who share similar values and ethos as RAW, with sustainability and the pursuit of excellence as key drivers.”
Hayley continued“ It is exciting to have Cheska on our ever growing team. Cheska previously starred in BAFTA award-winning reality show 'Made In Chelsea' as well as running her own PR company for five years and she's a popular influencer in her own right, with an incredible black book of highly valuable contacts.”
Cheska added: “It's brilliant to be working with such a creative and vibrant team here in Devon. We represent the best food, drink and lifestyle brands from both the South West region and further afield. Although based in Devon, RAW has the same skills, contacts and resources as any London based agencies. It also has the added knowledge of the Westcountry. It's great to have found a company like that in the county I love living and raising a family in.”
Cheska joins the already vibrant and incredibly talented team which includes the outstanding Lucy Johnson, Harry Hook, Kath Hope, Martin Hesp, Danielle Merchant, Emilie Morris, Hanna China and Anna Roses.
Commenting on its appointment of RAW for all its PR activity, Emily Harmon, who oversees the project at The Collective at Woolsery in North Devon, says: “RAW is truly passionate about all they do and, within a few short weeks of working together, have already gained national coverage for our newly launched accommodation. I'm looking forward to the months ahead working with the team, there.”
The Collective at Woolsery is now offering the choice of seven utterly stunning places to stay that are luxurious, opulent and beautifully designed and well-appointed.
Each has its own unique character, drawing on the history and heritage of the village and telling its own story through a stunning aesthetic carefully designed by New Heritage Design. With the on-site The Farmers Arms, Woolsery is rapidly becoming one of Devon's most exciting culinary destinations.
