Annie works on selected PR, messaging and Deeper Work projects supporting strategy, research and delivery.

Annie is a communications specialist and creative producer. We first started working together when Annie was the client, and I was the PR for Bedford Creative Arts (BCA). We had a brilliant working relationship and achieved a lot, including some epic global coverage for BCA and their artist Quilla Constance as part of Processions 2018. Annie works as a freelance communications specialist and works with me on projects requiring strategic insight, vision and creative thinking.

Annie has a fantastic nose for a story and cut her teeth, way back, as Communications and Brand Manager at Microsoft, before moving into the arts. She’s worked for Artes Mundi International Art Prize, Wysing Arts Centre, Iniva (Institute of International Visual Arts) and in Asia for Singapore Tyler Print Institute. Her favourite projects are those with social change at their heart, and she brings a wealth of communications and business experience.

HBL works on selected PR projects particularly for theatre, dance and contemporary performance.

HBL has worked in performing arts communications for over 10 years, meeting me some years ago when she was the Press Manager at Battersea Arts Centre. We worked closely together on a powerful choreography work by Malik Nashad Sharpe, and over the years that followed, we kept looking for ways to collaborate once again.

From working in-house at small, independent venues (King’s Head Theatre, Islington) to large, cross-arts organisations (Barbican Centre), plus half a decade in a leading arts PR agency for good measure, HBL has gathered experience across contemporary dance, theatre, festivals, opera, circus, escape room games, immersive experiences, national tours, and the West End.

Secoura is based in Manchester, where she freelances as a comms expert working with various organisations and artists across the arts and culture sector. We met while she was working at Contact theatre in Manchester and I was brought in as PR consultant.

Secoura joins The Space inBetween to support clients in PR, particularly with regional and local press work and supports the team over multiple projects. She is also the in-house researcher, and her diverse comms skills mean we can offer social media auditing and support for clients where required.

David is my Virtual Assistant. He manages contracts, invoicing and reporting as well as being an all round wizard in everything.

He has been supporting small business owners since 2008. But he hasn’t always done this – he once lived in a jungle chasing monkeys.
