CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

We appointed Storrington PR to launch Alphonse Island into the UK leisure sector in 2016. We were thrilled with the results they produced and in 2018, the agency successfully gained a wealth of coverage for our new venture, Blue Safari Seychelles. Throughout the pandemic, Storrington PR thoroughly supported Blue Safari Seychelles by gaining exposure in national UK national newspapers such as The Times and The Telegraph to name a few and thought out of the box to obtain dedicated coverage in key global titles such as CNN and Forbes. We do not see Storrington PR as an external agency, but as a key part of our internal team and for anyone seeking a UK PR agency, dedicated to the luxury travel sector, appointing Storrington PR to elevate your brand, is a very wise investment.

When we opened our doors to the UK market, Storrington Collective didn’t just pioneer our path – they became an extension of our values. They understood our resort’s essence and translated it into a clear, compelling story that resonates with UK guests. From refining our positioning to guiding the tone, visuals, and guest experience narrative, they turned aspiration into an authentic connection. Their care for every detail, their adaptability, and their steadfast advocacy have transformed potential hesitation into a trusted partnership. Working with them feels less like a contract and more like welcoming a devoted ally who helps our brand shine with warmth, integrity, and lasting impact in the UK market.

INDUSTRY TESTIMONIALS

I have worked in African Travel PR for over 25 years, and Li is one of my go-to sounding boards when I need to bounce ideas around. I love her collaborative spirit and generosity in sharing her thoughts and experiences. We have collaborated on several occasions, first in arranging a very last minute WTM media event (as in a week’s notice!) for an African tourist board – but also on arranging joint media trips for individual VIP journalists including a recent trip to Botswana for Conde Nast Traveller and a fabulous Namibian trip for The Times and Sunday Times. Some of our clients are a great fit, and I love working with Li as she “gets it” in a way that few PRs do when it comes to the challenges and joys of African Travel PR.

I have worked with Julian for many years and trust his judgement and passion for the properties he represents wholeheartedly.

We’ve known and worked with Julian for over 14 years and always found his range of contacts and know-how invaluable.

MEDIA TESTIMONIALS

As a journalist, writer and editor, I have a blast working with Storrington PR – I can’t praise them enough. There are multiple reasons: the pitches they develop for their clients are always original enough to catch my attention in the mailbox. The press releases excite me because they never parrot fads. Another reason is that they’re a pleasure to deal with: efficient, responsive, and supportive. Even more important in a fast-paced industry, they are dynamic, and able to problem-solve and think on their feet. Finally, I trust their curation of clients. It’s rare to find a PR agency with this level of integrity and I’m holding on to them!

It is always a pleasure to work with Storrington PR. Li and her team make things happen and are refreshingly pro-active. I rate them highly.
MARK PALMER Travel Editor – Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday

Li is a woman of her word! She is direct, no-nonsense, and a meticulous planner. She thinks deeply about her clients and firmly believes in solutions, not problems. Working with her recently on a press trip, some flights did not align with our itinerary. Within minutes, she had organised a private jet! Working with Li and the Storrington Collective team is a delight, as there is no fluff or puff, just first-class results.

As a journalist, I have been on several trips organised by Li and Storrington Collective and they were a joy to work with. It is clear that Li is experienced, committed, no-nonsense, meticulous, helpful and that she understands not only what journalists need, but what makes a truly great story. She has shown herself to honest and straight to the point which is a rarity in this industry – and willing to go the extra mile for her clients. An impressive operation.

Li is one of the most efficient, professional and straightforward PRs to deal with in the luxury travel world. She’s reassuringly down to earth, does things when she says she’s going to, and understands what makes a story. I also trust her implicitly – which I wouldn’t all PRs. If she sends me an email, I read it. And that’s what good PR is surely all about?
