Expert research communications and PR services

Campus is unlike many other communications agencies – we only focus on research and innovation.

Communicating with clarity, purpose, and integrity.

Whether you’re striving for policy influence, public awareness, funder engagement, or institutional prestige, we translate research and new ideas into ways of communicating that deliver measurable visibility, credibility, and impact.

As well as excelling at media engagement and thought leadership, our team produces compelling content for websites, reports and magazines. We also develop scripts for videos and animations and clear, evidence-based materials such as impact case studies and policy briefs.

With an insights-first approach, we help clients plan strategically and deliver research communications that align with real-world goals and measurable outcomes.

But we don’t stop there - because sustainable impact depends on confident communicators, we also share our expertise through tailored training workshops that build in-house skills and capacity.

Who knew you could create such beauty with simple things like water, food coloring , light, and glass tubes!

  • Flexible. Professional. Invaluable. Campus PR will always go the extra mile and act as a vital extension of the team. Above all, they are honest and trustworthy. If you want to talk through how and why we’ve worked with them, just drop me a line.

    RACHEL BARSON
    HEAD OF MEDIA RELATIONS, UNIVERSITY OF LEEDS

  • We’d been speaking to Smith & Nephew for a few years about working with us to commercialise the technology and we’d had some excellent publications on the research, but what got the company’s attention was the media coverage which Campus PR helped us achieve. The science on its own couldn’t do it – it was the publicity that clinched the deal.

    PROFESSOR SHEILA MACNEIL
    UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD

  • Working with Campus PR has been a great experience. We had a huge amount of interest in our project, which raised the department’s profile and helped us with our post-doctoral recruitment.

  • Campus PR are the first PR company I have dealt with (and I have dealt with a few) who do not try to “dumb down” the story or sensationalise it.

    DR ROSS BOYLE

  • We've been really pleased with the work you've done with engineering. It’s been a pleasure working with you all for so long and you've done some fantastic work for us.
