Key campaign: Change4Life
Government monthly spend on external PR agencies axed by over half
Matt Cartmell, PR Week UK, Thursday, 25 November 2010, 6:00am,
The Government's monthly spend on external PR agencies has been reduced by more than half since David Cameron became Prime Minister.
Government bodies spent £112,239 on PR agencies Grayling, Freuds, Cake, Consolidated PR and The Forster Company in September.
This compares with £262,744 that was spent on agencies in May, before the Government initiated its marketing 'freeze'.
Details of all government spending over £25,000 since May were published last week. Freud Communications is the biggest recipient of PR cash, largely due to its work on the Department for Health's Change4Life campaign.
