JJ Public Relations represents a wide range of clients who often have very different media needs.
Some organisations require daily support and JJ PR is their in-house press office – being available 24/7 for press releases to be quickly and efficiently written and despatched and to handle enquiries from the media.
Other clients require more structured support – working to a PR plan with press releases, customer case studies and features identified in advance to ensure a steady flow of information to the media.
Based in Derby and therefore accessible to virtually anywhere in the UK with two hours, our mission statement is simple: ‘To provide businesses and organisations of all sizes with open, honest and value for money PR and marketing support’.
We are small – and proud of it. It enables us to be flexible to your needs and ensure that the person you meet at the very beginning is the person who will work with you on a daily basis.
JJPR has extensive experience in handling crisis management on behalf of clients either as part of a service level agreement (acting as the client’s first port of call for media enquiries) or on a project basis.
We are available 24/7 for the client and the media and our skill is finding the positive in a negative.
Our charging is open and transparent – no hidden costs or charges and any sub contractor costs (eg: photography) are charged directly to the client ie: no mark up is added.

As a former NCTJ qualified and experienced journalist, Sarah Jenkin-Jones has excellent contacts with a wide range of regional, trade and consumer press writers and editors.
Having worked on the ‘other side of the fence’ we are able to spot a story, write copy that journalists will want to print and capitalise on wider opportunities with the media whether that is newspapers, magazines, radio or television.
Crisis management
Sometimes things go wrong and when this hits the headlines, it is potentially damaging for a business or organisation whose well-earned good reputation can quickly turn sour.
The key is to face an issue head on and issue timely, accurate and credible information to ensure that things do not escalate out of control.
