Equinox Communications was also a big winner at tonight’s (24 October) awards, with its ‘The Fight for Welsh Charity Shops’ campaign for The Charity Retail Association leading to multiple awards.
It was named Best Use of Research, Planning, Measurement and Evaluation, with judges commending the “effective use of data throughout the campaign enabled adaptation when required in order to achieve the required result.”

Said Val Bodden MCIPR, chair of CIPR Cymru Wales:“All the hard work and perseverance has paid off for our deserving winners at this year’s CIPR Pride Cymru Awards evening. It is always a delight to see the smiling faces of the Gold and Silver winners as they step up to collect their Awards and know how much it means to them to be voted at the top of the PR game.
