Birmingham PR agency WPR has been named the region's top consultancy at an industry awards.

The Edgbaston-based firm took home the top prize at the 2017 Midlands PRide Awards which are run by trade body the Chartered Institute of Public Relations.

WPR was named the 'gold' winner in the outstanding PR consultancy category at the awards which celebrated the best public relations agencies, individuals and in-house teams across the Midlands.

The agency was also named gold winner in the best use of media relations and healthcare categories and 'silver' winner in consumer relations and science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) categories.

The company was commended for its business strategy after adding more than £1 million to its fee income and growing by 46 per cent in three years.

WPR managing director Jane Ainsworth said: "We're extremely proud to have been named outstanding public relations consultancy.

"This year's awards were closely fought which is a testament to the quality of talent we have in the region.

"In an industry that is often perceived as London-centric, it's heartening to see that Midlands and Birmingham PR firms are consistently delivering high-impact campaigns for some of Britain's best-known brands.
