Emma Woodridge - PR & Marketing Executive

Emma joined the team after working in several industries for over 20 years. She has previously worked as a civil servant, teaching assistant and PA. She joined Eventageous PR, initially on a temporary basis, in 2004 having returned from living in the Middle East . On her first week she was immediately involved in a PR campaign with Johnny Rotten and hasn’t looked back since.

She has a keen interest in most sports and has a particular love of football. She has supported West Ham for many years; at work she sits opposite an Arsenal fan which makes life interesting. She has also followed Formula 1 all over Europe ; she most enjoyed the Monaco Grand Prix back in the days of Nigel Mansell.

Emma ' s other love is photography which initially started as a hobby capturing interesting moments at Formula 1 Grands Prix. She now can be seen on the touchline most Saturdays covering regional football tournaments as club photographer. This hobby now crosses over in to her daytime job; she also acts as an in-house photographer at Eventageous PR for client/product launches. Emma gets a buzz from seeing her pictures in news releases sent to the biggest news agencies in the world.

 

Bianca Knight - PR & Marketing Assistant

Bianca joined the Eventageous team as the youngest recruit after studying A levels at Hereford Sixth Form College. With a particular interest in English language and psychology, in October, she fulfilled her ambition of working in public relations and marketing by securing a job as a Publicity Assistant.

She has since assisted on a wide range of events at the Birmingham NEC Motorcycle Show, the Duxford Air Show and a red carpet celebrity bash at the prestigious Café Royal. However, Bianca ' s most recent (Jan 2008) claim to fame was organising a Guinness World Record attempt for the largest gathering of wheelchair users on ice to promote a new DVD by amputee, Leanne Grose. The record was successfully achieved and generated extensive media coverage for Leanne and her publicity campaign both in the UK and abroad.

Bianca assists the team with all day-to-day duties within the agency, from media pitching and securing interviews to producing point-of-sale material.

Outside of work, Bianca has a passion for snowboarding, cycling and outdoor pursuits. As a born thrill seeker, she never turns down the opportunity to participate in any high speed activity or sport.
