Curious PR
was founded in 2013 by a former broadcast journalist with a passion for asking the right questions in order to tell 'unmissable stories' about our clients. Our ethos is 'dig deeper and be outstanding' which has earned our boutique agency a reputation for generating superlative results. It has also helped us build us a
prestigious client base
drawn from sectors including Environmental Sustainability,
Healthcare, Luxury, Film, Media
and the
Charitable sector
. In 2024 we were nominated for 2 prestigious industry awards for 'Best PR campaign' - and one for 'Best Company Culture'.

That goes for our own people as well as for clients and partners.
