Crawley Borough Council has expanded its public relations team and
appointed Richard Morris, formerly leisure services marketing manager of
Horsham District Council, to be its marketing and PR manager. He is
joined by Nikki Richardson, formerly of Brighton and Hove Council, who
is the new publicity officer. Both are new posts, created by Mark
Robinson, who arrived last December from Lewisham Borough Council as
communications head. Previously the work was shared by a part-time
employee and press officer Janet Treagus, who remains in her position.
Robinson said: ’This (recruitment) reflects the council’s commitment to
improve communications both internally and externally.’
