EAST VILLAGE. is an award-winning PR agency on a mission to amplify the female voice.
Over the past decade, we’ve established ourselves as the leading agency helping female-serving brands to stand out, connect deeply, and sell more.
By leveraging PR, we land more women the spotlight, while helping them to launch products, promote services, lobby for change, and secure vital investments to grow and scale.
First and foremost, we’re PR experts; but our people-first approach means we’re so much more than that.
If you need a headline-grabbing press release, an unforgettable event, or an activation that stops people in their tracks, we can do that… but so can lots of PR agencies.
However, if you need all that plus investment readiness support, access to an active network of founders and investors, help navigating the start-up and scale-up ecosystems, and community-building services, EAST VILLAGE. is the agency for you.
We’re storytellers, brand connectors, but – most importantly – we’re doers. If we see a problem that needs fixing, we roll up our sleeves and either lend our skills to those making change or create the solution needed ourselves: whether that’s offering 12-months pro-bono support for founders from underserved communities through our EV. spark. Programme; bringing female founders together to fuel business growth through peer support, expert masterclasses, and networking events, through our sister business The 51% Club; or our founder, Tara, co-chairing The Lifted Project – the nationwide initiative that is creating regional growth boards – in Birmingham.

“I have been working with EAST VILLAGE. since March and have been so impressed: the best investment to date. I have been featured in many well known publications, as well as on TV and podcasts.What has been super helpful is how quick the team are to write up responses; when I have worked with previous PR agencies it has been so much admin and writing. EAST VILLAGE. has been quick to learn what our business values and value proposition are, meaning they can pitch super quick without needing too much from me. Communication has been superb: every Friday I have received a weekly low down of what’s been pitched, what’s been achieved and the plan of action. It’s been a great investment, which I will be continuing for the foreseeable future.”

“The coverage and outreach that EAST VILLAGE. has achieved in their first year representing us has been outstanding. Our account manager Hattie and her team have a thorough understanding of our core values and objectives which they use to create thoughtful and interesting content. Our audience numbers have increased hugely since working with EAST VILLAGE. with consistent press coverage and hundreds of thousands of social media impressions. During a year when access to mental health services has been especially crucial, EAST VILLAGE. have stepped up to ensure our message has been communicated broadly and clearly.”
