Bell Pottinger is:

• Providing a 24/7 press office

• Negotiating with news media across the world

Chris Warham, managing director of Bell Pottinger North commented. “It is the combination of our in depth understanding of local attitudes and expectations and our London and global media connections that helped us engage with a client and her issues at such short notice.”
