About this Event

How do you find the local angle in a national story? We're joined by Siri Hampapur, a broadcast journalist in the newsroom at ITV Meridien to get her tips on how PRs can boost their chances of getting regional coverage. She'll be talking about the importance of local case studies, creating a regional link, and how to format your pitch to get her attention.

After the Q&A, we’ll be hosting an exclusive speed pitching session with our two panellists Jules Pearson, Ed Cunningham as well as Josh Barrie (London Standard).
