I am a former press/tv broadcast journalist and BBC Newcastle producer now running Kate Slater Public Relations in Gosforth, Newcastle upon Tyne. We specialise in media relations, broadast media, social media, crisis management and event management. I love my work and I believe this is reflected in Kate Slater PR successful campaigns with great clients from the Scottish Borders to London and with lots of North East clients too. We may be a small company but we're a highly effective one. Kate Slater PR was a Chartered Institute of PR PRide Award finalist 2009 for her national campaign "Everybody needs a little time away" for a Northumberland tourism business. PR was the only marketing tool used apart from a website. This campaign generated £52,000 in equivalent advertising value and exceeded all expectations in terms of results, netting over £300,000 of revenue from a PR budget of under £10,000.As well as offering successful journalism and PR experience, Kate Slater is also highly qualified with BA (hons) in English, French and Italian and the Chartered Institute of PR Diploma from Sunderland University 2006)
