We’re always known that promoting Patient Opinion to the public has its challenges. Working with the press and journalists has been something we’ve done carefully, to ensure we protect the people who use our site, whilst spreading the message about what we do to new audiences Our press policy reflects just this.

Over the past year, we have been very pleased to work with the fantastic team at PR agency Journalista. They have perfectly understood our values, and have worked hard with us to try and make sure our press coverage is balanced, far reaching and powerful.

We are so pleased to say that this week, Journalista won a PRCA award for the Patient Opinion re-launch campaign in January this year.

The PRCA Evaluation award recognises the overall positive impact of a PR campaign.

To win, they had to show ‘that a PR team and its campaign are making a significant contribution to the organisation’. We couldn’t agree more!

It’s great that our hard work with Journalista, and the continued development of our media work is being recognised. Here’s to more excellent media coverage and many more awards!

As Paul mentioned a couple of weeks ago, we've been shortlisted for a Catalyst Award for Social Technology - the awards which show how technology is already enabling people to connect with each other in new ways and do good things. 

We've been nominated for the David and Goliath award, for "something little that made a difference to a something big and powerful".  This also means we're eligibile for the People's Choice Award - so please show your support and vote for us.

Thanks...
