Steph
Whippet PR was founded by Steph Pollard in 2020. Steph has more than 30 years’ experience in journalism and public relations. Starting as a reporter, then sub-editor, on regional newspapers and magazines, she has since worked for Government departments, NHS trusts, local authorities, charities and SMEs helping them to tell their stories and communicate their key messages effectively.
Martha
Martha is a communications executive with Whippet PR working on social media content, media monitoring, copywriting and proof-reading. She also leads on inclusion and accessibility in our communications and keeps Steph up to date on digital developments!
Associates
Whippet PR works with a range of trusted professionals including photographers, graphic designers, animators and website developers. Our associates specialise in media training, events management and online marketing. We’re always happy to collaborate – with these, and others - to deliver a comprehensive communications solution.
Wilson
Wilson is our brand inspiration and plays an important role in the Whippet PR office! An effective communicator, he takes the lead on work-life balance with his “Time for a screen break – take me for a walk!” stare. Wilson also recognises a deadline and does his bit by falling fast asleep in his basket, quietly confident that everything is in hand.
