q&a

Why did you sign up to be a judge for The Pros Awards 2026?

The Pros Awards are about more than who wins on the night; they celebrate the talent and impact of Black, Asian, Mixed Race and Ethnic Minority PR and communications professionals. In a noisy world they create space to pause, reflect and focus on what matters in our work: meaningful stories, change and community. Judging is my chance to give back, champion emerging voices and to be inspired by incredibly talented people driving the industry forward.

What was your favourite PR/comms campaign from 2025 and why?

Rugby World Cup 2025 in particular – and England Red Roses rugby team at the 2025 Rugby World Cup. It was a unifying moment for women’s sport that had an incredible story.
