Ballyhoo PR
Agency welcomed into creative town centre community
Ballyhoo PR, a Northamptonshire-based public relations agency, has moved its operations from Lamport to the dynamic creative hub of Vulcan Works, in the heart of Northampton’s Cultural Quarter. T e move marks the start of a new chapter for Ballyhoo PR, which
celebrated nine years in business last month. Ballyhoo PR started working with the team at Vulcan Works
at the end of 2022, preparing for its offi cial opening in February 2023. Since then, they have established a strong agency/client relationship and Ballyhoo PR has seen fi rst-hand the benefi ts of using the fl exible workspace and additional services provided by Vulcan Works to support business growth. Emma Speirs, founder and director of Ballyhoo PR, said: “As soon
as we walked through the doors of Vulcan Works, we were impressed with the space, which combines old and new and pays tribute to Northamptonshire’s shoe-making heritage. “Since then, we have helped to tell the stories of the inspiring
entrepreneurs and thriving businesses who call Vulcan Works home. We’ve also seen how hard the team works to support businesses and help them to grow through various events, workshops, and a dedicated business support manager on site. Barclays, SEMLEP and Starting Off all have a presence there too.
“I adored our converted barn offi ce in Lamport and it was
our home for just shy of four years. But, like many businesses, we adopted a hybrid way of working and were only using the offi ce once or twice a week and the bills were constantly going up. “Now, we have taken out co-working memberships at Vulcan
Works for all of the team and use it as our base. We still meet up to work together as a team a minimum of once a week but now have the added benefi ts of being part of a wider, creative community with additional opportunities for business support. T e move also gives us a town centre base and makes us much more visible as a business. We should have done this years ago!” Garrick Hurter, centre manager at Vulcan Works, added:
“Ballyhoo PR is a perfect fit for Vulcan Works, which was established to provide fl exible, scaleable workspace solutions for creative businesses. “T e Ballyhoo team were always welcome and felt part of our
team, but now they are regularly working out of Vulcan Works, we get to see more of them. “Ballyhoo PR has been instrumental in helping tell the Vulcan
Works story and the team have a deep understanding of what we’re about. Having them embedded in the space brings everything full circle and we look forward to seeing their business continue to thrive here.”
