Since 2021, Christina has been providing PR support for my campaign to bring to justice those responsible for the murder of my friend WPC Yvonne Fletcher outside the Libyan Embassy in 1984. At every step of our tireless journey to get convictions, Christina ensures the media is updated to ensure our story will be heard.

I can’t thank you enough for all your help and your professional expertise not to mention the breadth and depth of coverage you obtained for us with your wide range of contacts in the media world; it really is a minefield out there but you appear to navigate it with such ease which belies the hard work you put into what you do – it shows in the impressive results you get.

Having never had to deal with PR before, we were simply blown away by Christina’s professionalism and her ability to forward think and prep us for projects. Her expertise in identifying opportunities and highlighting our activities for maximum exposure is impressive. Christina is approachable and available at short notice. I feel in safe hands with her and am confident she will be an integral part of building our business.

I have worked extensively with Bowden PR for now approaching fifty editions of TAXI newspaper. Christina’s ability to write, commission and deliver diverse-ranging print-ready copy that meets the need of her clients, on time, first time and every time is a true mark of her professionalism.

We have been using Christina’s PR services for several months to help raise the profile of our busy charity. She has been an absolute delight to work with. Not only is she obviously a very accomplished professional in her field, she always goes above and beyond, contributing to team discussions, coming up with a range of different ideas and helping us to make valuable connections and collaborations for the charity.

She quickly grasped a full understanding of what is a complex organisation, with various services and offerings, sensitivities and complications to consider. She works proactively, often coming to us with opportunities and is a highly valued member of our team. She is a brilliant support to our marketing team, has already achieved some amazing results in the few months we’ve been working together and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Christina is a consummate professional and has not only been so helpful and supportive, but took time to understand me and my business, keeping me informed of the process. Christina is also so happy for the success of others and has been an integral part in helping me raise my profile.

I would have no hesitation in recommending her PR services.

Andrea Barker, Confidence Coach
TaxiCharity-400B

The coverage we have received has been nothing short of miraculous and we are in constant awe of the sheer energy and determination you exhibit on the charity’s behalf. There is never a sense of panic or trepidation or indeed despair which could be understandable given some of the situations and individuals you find yourself faced with! We would also like to say what an absolute pleasure it is to work with you. Professional, unflagging, ingenious and great fun!

We have worked with Christina Bowden of Bowden PR for more than a year now and the uplift in our local PR presence has been significant. Christina is very well connected in terms of journalists and publishers as well as local radio and has given us access to several publications that we have never had the time to pursue ourselves.

I would highly recommend Bowden PR. Christina has become a really valued addition to our team. Christina works really well with our Communications Manager to complement our social media and communications plans. She has taken the time to get to know us and what’s important to us in terms of our key messages. We plan things in advance and Christina will come up with ideas of how best to engage journalists and publishers and its working really well for us. This is evidenced in the volume of articles published every month that mentions Kent Community Foundation.

Josephine McCartney, Chief Executive, Kent Community Foundation,

Christina has helped me to get in touch with several World War II veterans for a TV news report on German public broadcaster ARD about VE Day 2020. I can honestly say that I have rarely encountered such a motivated, helpful and passionate PR professional in my journalistic career. Even in times of the COVID-19 crisis, she did not dismiss more complicated requests but always focussed on HOW to make them happen. I’m looking forward to working together with Christina again in the future.

Words cannot express how magnificently you worked for us in the lead up to and in Normandy for the D Day 75 celebrations. Your constant interface with every aspect of media coverage was truly outstanding and a wonder to behold. All achieved with style, grace and without a glimmer of fuss or drama.

On behalf of all our veterans, companions, drivers, the Cab trade and the Taxi Charity committee a huge and well deserved thank you

I have known Christina for well over a decade, since her days as the in-house PR for John Lewis, and she has been a joy to work with.  Thoroughly professional and always friendly, she has taken the time to get to know the editorial needs of the titles I edit and delivers exciting well-targeted press releases, photography and feature ideas that I know our readers will be interested in.

On a day-to-day level Christina is highly efficient and quick to respond to requests for information and images. Down to earth, level-headed, passionate and knowledgeable about the clients she represents and always a pleasure to do business with.  I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Christina to anyone looking for a fantastic PR.

I would like to say a really big thank you to Christina Bowden for all the wonderful work and support of my book, Timber’s Story.  She has been and was an absolute godsend on launch night.  I would have no hesitation in highly recommending Christina if you’re looking for a PR.  I’m booking her for my next book, which is a series of children’s stories.

I wanted to thank you for all your efforts so far with our PR. You’ve been fantastic, and I’m sure we wouldn’t have had nearly as much exposure without your help.

I have known Christina Bowden in a business capacity for 15 years.  She is a consummate professional, able to judge a situation immediately and offer a workable resolution.  Equally at home writing engaging copy, managing all aspects of first class events and keeping stakeholders on side, Christina is an asset any business would be happy to have on board.

I worked with Christina both at John Lewis, Oxford Street and Peter Jones.  She was an excellent colleague and had a real skill for being able to communicate in a clear and inspiring way.  Always utterly professional in everything she did, Christina was an expert in her field and always delivered her objectives.  I would have no hesitation recommending Christina to any business.

Retreats_for_You_Logo-400

I first met Christina at London’s Moonwalk when she persuaded me to become an ambassador for Medical Detection Dogs as she was their PR and Marketing Events Manager.  We worked together fundraising for the charity and I was so impressed with her work ethic, enthusiasm and creative energy that I asked her to help market my new writing retreat business, Retreats For You in Sheepwash, Devon.

She will be my media matchmaker, doing jobs I could not do alone.  She will effect introductions to a wide range of contacts which will help spread the word about my business. These are invaluable since they come across as independent testimonials and are much more powerful than anything I could do. Christina has brainstormed tirelessly and I already value her input – just looking forward to reaping the rewards of using a professional to give me short cuts we need!

I always knew how important social media was, but my business page had sat dormant for so long.  Bowden PR came to my rescue and now plans my strategy, posts frequent, relevant and engaging content, answers posts and messages, encourages and develops interaction with my existing supporters, as well as increasing my number of page likes.  This work has resulted in an increase in my customer bookings.  If you need support with your social media, do give them a call.
