Hi, I'm @lucecannonpr.bsky.social, looking after the CIPR Wessex social this month. I've worked in comms for 32+ years: 20 years as a journalist and 12+ years in PR for arts and other bodies. I'm comms manager for Good Faith Partnership and @warmwelcomeuk.bsky.social. Join us at CIPR Wessex!

Have you considered the @cipr.co.uk PR diploma. Several Wessex committee members have completed the qualification and talk about the confidence, strategic thinking and fresh ideas the course gave them. Are you ready to stretch yourself? Details: cipr.co.uk/CIPR/Learn_D...

We are celebrating the #Wessex region in 2025! #Hampshire, #Dorset and the #IsleofWight are great places to live and work. We will be introducing some of the best local locations and businesses. Dorset's #IsleofPurbeck is home to nearly 2,500 businesses and is known for the stunning Jurassic coast.

Border terriers, man. Their never-ending crimes only outweighed by their dogged affection. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Hello BlueSky! I am reliably informed this is a better place than Twitter has become. How I miss 2008... in some ways.
