Ready for a summer night of community, conversation and a little comms glow-up? ☀️
We’re turning up the vibes for a one-off Summer Party edition of Pints & Purpose , our monthly meet-up for women and non-binary business owners, creatives, freelancers and founders. This time we’re heading to Southey Brewing Co in Penge, a brilliant local brewery with big community spirit.
Expect relaxed chat, proper connection, and a guest speaker who really knows their stuff.
🎤 Guest Speaker: Rosanna Head on PR & Communication for Small Businesses
Hi, I’m Rosanna, a seasoned PR and communications specialist with over 20 years of experience helping businesses shine, tell their stories, and connect with the right audiences.
In my talk, I’ll be diving into why public relations and clear communication are absolutely vital for small business success especially in today’s fast-moving, noisy world. Whether you’re a one-person band or growing a team, understanding how to share your story is what helps you stand out, build trust, and grow with confidence.
I’ve worked both in-house and agency-side with a wide range of UK and global brands, across corporate and consumer PR. I also hold a degree in PR and Marketing Communications – but more importantly, I’ve got plenty of real-world stories and insider tips to share!
👋 Come say hi or follow me online, I love a good chat about all things PR, brand visibility, and how to craft a strategy that actually works for your goals.
In this session, we’ll cover:
✨ The key ingredients of any successful PR and comms strategy ✨ Common mistakes small businesses make when trying to get press coverage ✨ How to confidently talk about your business in a way that gets attention (for the right reasons!) ✨Where to start if you’ve never done PR before
Whether you want to pitch to the press, improve your brand presence, or just feel clearer about how to communicate what you do, this one’s for you!
📍Where? Southey Brewing Co in Penge (upstairs) 🎟️Tickets: £30 (Only 40 available!)
Includes entry, speaker session, and your first drink on us 🍻
Spaces are limited so book early! We’d love to see you there.
✨ All women (cis, trans) & non-binary business owners and freelancers welcome.
How to book:
When you book your ticket to the party you'll be asked which pizza you'd like to pre-order (there'll be slices rather than whole pizzas each!) and which track you'd like to request for the playlist.
What to wear:
As it's our summer party we have a completely optional dress code - the Pints and Purpose brand colours are orange, white and cream so you could come wearing something in our brand colours, if you like!
