Claire Doherty, owner of Grapevine PR, has announced the launch of The Press Office, a PR tool for small businesses and in-house teams.

The Press Office launches with a new PR Membership, a programme which offers accessible PR support to start-ups and small business owners, particularly fashion, beauty & lifestyle brands, who presently don’t have the budget or stability for retainers. It offers strategy and ‘drop-in’ consultancy that is paid on a monthly basis, with no long-term commitment. The membership is also designed to give small business owners a greater understanding and confidence in PR for when such time arises that they are able to work with agencies or freelancers.
