We are celebrating today after being ranked 41st in Prolific North’s Top 50 PR Agencies 2025, climbing three places from 44th in 2024.

The annual list, now in its 13th year, is widely recognised as the benchmark ranking for the PR industry across the North of England. Compiled by independent research specialists Mustard, the Top 50 evaluates agencies on a broad range of financial and operational metrics including turnover, pre-tax profit, headcount and balance sheet information.

Our steady rise up the rankings comes in a year characterised by mixed fortunes across the sector. According to Prolific North’s analysis, pre-tax profit for agencies ranked 11–50 increased by just 2% overall, with the industry continuing to evolve rapidly as digital-first strategies, consultancy-based models and new service areas reshape the PR landscape.

Our growth reflects the trust clients place in us and the hard work of our talented team here in York.

“The industry continues to change at pace, but our commitment to smart strategy, impactful storytelling and measurable results remains the foundation of everything we do.”

With the Northern PR sector experiencing an 8% rise in revenue this year and continued demand for digital content, reputation management, ESG communications and crisis expertise, the ranking reinforces our s strong position as we head into 2026.

Monica added: “Yorkshire is home to an exciting, ambitious PR community, and being recognised alongside so many outstanding agencies across the region is a real honour. We’re grateful to our clients, partners and team – and we’re looking forward to building on this momentum in the coming year.”
