Marriott Communications and CgPR Launch MC PR
Marriott Communications, and CgPR, are thrilled to announce the launch of MC PR, a new strategic partnership offering senior-level PR, creative campaigns, and reputation consultancy to organisations across the UK.
Bringing together decades of combined experience by founders Samuel Marriott-Dowding and Chrissie Pringle across culture, charity, hospitality, lifestyle, public sector, and global development, MC PR was created for organisations that want to communicate boldly, purposefully, and with measurable impact.
Although Marriott Communications and CgPR remain fully independent agencies, MC PR unites their strengths into one cohesive service - blending strategy, creative storytelling, and hands-on delivery from two experienced agency leads.
Chrissie Pringle (CgPR) brings 25 years’ worth of expertise in regional, national and international press, and has spearheaded major award-winning campaigns for luxury and high-profile brands including hospitality, leisure and visitor attractions, as well as blue-chip companies across the UK.
“Our clients get the benefit of two agencies in one - without the complexity,” said Chrissie Pringle.
“With MC PR, clients receive senior experience, national reach, and hands-on delivery, wrapped into a single, seamless service.”
Samuel Marriott-Dowding (Marriott Communications) has delivered award-winning campaigns for organisations including The United Nations, The Scottish Government, The Labour Party, Inclusion Scotland, and Baby Loss Awareness Week, alongside work across charity, culture, and high-growth business sectors.
“MC PR is built for organisations that are both bold and brave,” added Samuel Marriott-Dowding.
“We’ve created a model that blends strategy, creativity, and execution - helping clients influence, connect, and evolve.”
Together, MC PR offers clients the agility of an independent agency with the firepower of a senior-led communications team.
The partnership builds on the agencies’ collaborative success delivering high-impact cultural and regional campaigns, including the 2025 North East International Film Festival - which achieved 75 million global publication views, as well as, regional, national, international and broadcast coverage.
