Bournemouth and Poole College has appointed The Inspiration Agency to lead its public relations and crisis communications, following a competitive tendering process.
The partnership will provide strategic support to the college, which is one of the largest further education providers in the South. The agency will work closely with the college to strengthen its communications and promote its role in the community.
Debbie Smith, Chief People Officer for Culture, Communications and Community at the college, said clear and effective communication was vital to reflect the college’s growing offer and regional impact.
She said, “We’re incredibly proud of who we are – a vibrant, inclusive and forward-thinking college at the heart of our community.”
Founded in 2011, The Inspiration Agency is based in Bournemouth and recently expanded its team and services following acquisitions of Darren Northeast PR and Octima Marketing. It now offers a full suite of public relations and marketing support, including education-specific expertise.
Louise Seager, the agency’s owner and Creative Director, said, “We’re delighted to partner with the college, helping them share their stories and respond effectively to any communications challenges.”
