An audience with Tank PR
27-05-2011 | Martin | Tank PR News
It’s been another busy week at Tank PR HQ.
We’ve been holding PR drop-in sessions for the venues involved in this year’s Nottingham Food and Drink Festival. The idea was to give them some ideas and inspiration to help promote themselves both during and after the Festival, and to give them a greater idea of how PR works.
As a Nottingham PR agency, it was great to meet so many of the people that help to make Nottingham’s food and drink offering so varied. It was also rewarding to get some really positive feedback and to even see some get cracking straight away and get themselves some media coverage.
‘It’s good to talk’ is a bit of a cliché, but in this case, it definitely has been.

Nottingham PR agency Tank PR has been selected to handle the PR for the Nottingham Food & Drink Festival 2011.
The agency, which is based in Nottingham’s Lace Market, was appointed by We Are Nottingham, the Business Improvement District responsible for the Food & Drink Festival, following a three-way pitch against two other Nottingham PR agencies.
Tank PR will be tasked with orchestrating creative PR campaigns and generating excellent media coverage for the 12 day Festival, which is to run from 29 June to 10 July to celebrate the city’s nationally renowned food and drink offer.
Sylvia Manser, chief executive of We Are Nottingham, who led the four-strong selection panel that appointed Tank PR, says:
“The team demonstrated good experience of the sector and strong commercial understanding as to what we would like media coverage to achieve. We feel that their approach will capture the interest of the public and media, and help to create revenue as well as column inches for our levy-paying members.”
Tank PR, which was founded in 2009 by Trevor Palmer, adds the Food & Drink Festival to its ever growing list of food related clients, which includes the Curry Lounge restaurant, retail guru Karl McKeever and sandwich chain Simply Eat.
