A brand we believe in!

In the summer of 2021, we teamed up with Rumba Tiki Lounge in Macclesfield to create a special cocktail to celebrate the launch of our new brand!

Our brilliant, bright new brand colours and gradients reminded us somewhat of a tequila sunrise cocktail, so, after an excitable brainstorm, we thought what better way to celebrate the launch of our brilliant new brand than with our own bespoke cocktail! Watch it being created below.

A few weeks ago, the entire Skout team visited the beautiful and historic city of Palma, Majorca for our annual kick off event. It’s been a long time in the planning (pre-pandemic to be precise) and the first time we’ve been abroad for a kick off to the new financial year. We’ve always found kick off meetings a great way...
Why was PR your chosen career?  PR is all about storytelling, with so much opportunity for creativity and content creation.
