As 2021 draws to a close, it’s a great opportunity to reflect on a year like no other! We’ve navigated a global pandemic for the second year running, significantly bolstered our team, and despite the unexpected places we have found ourselves, we’re ending it on a high. From our office expansion in May to our 10th-anniversary celebrations in June, we’d like to take the opportunity to review our fantastic personal highlights and hopes for the year ahead.

In May, we acquired even more space in our current building to expand our office. Not only has this improved the way we work, but it also means our team has even more room to think and create. 

In June, we celebrated a decade of TMPR. Although we might look slightly different than we did in 2011, we’ve managed to retain the same attention to detail, passion for what we do, and many of the same clients. It’s been an excellent opportunity to pause and reflect on how far we have come and has reinforced our ambitions for the future.

They often say a change is as good as a rest, so we have been lucky enough to strengthen our team with some fresh faces and exciting new talent. We have lots of great team-building activities planned for 2022, which will allow us to get to know each other even better.

Rebuilding the team dynamic after lockdown and becoming acquainted with the new members of the team has become increasingly more important to us. Tom, our PR and marketing consultant, is particularly happy to be back in an office environment. He has also been part of some exceptional campaigns on a national and international basis – go, Tom!

Louise, our director, is delighted with our personal and client award wins which demonstrate our excellent working relationships and recognise what we’re doing right. It’s always a bonus to celebrate mutual achievements in person, and fortunately, we’ve been able to raise a glass or two with our clients and team in 2021.

From further afield at her new base in Perth, Australia, Hazel has experienced significant growth in her skill set through a steady increase in responsibilities. Not only has this drastically improved her confidence, but it has allowed her to take ownership of more projects and reach for the stars!

Over the summer, Oliver joined the team and has proved an excellent fit. Oliver’s highlight has been meeting our clients face-to-face and visiting their places of work. Exploring the industries in person has helped him gain a broader understanding of what they do and has been great fun.

In late October, we were joined by administrator Charlene, who made the big move from Hong Kong to Wales. She’s loving it so far and is excited to explore more of the UK, starting with Peterborough and then hopefully London in the New Year. 

Chloe, our newest member, who joined us in November, recently bought a house in Penarth, just a stone’s throw from the office – now, if that isn’t convenient, we’re not sure what is! Chloe can’t wait to get stuck into some exciting client projects in the new year and learn as much as she can from the team.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to our wonderful clients and partners for their continued support over the last year. It’s been a pleasure to work with you, and we’re truly looking forward to creating more magic in 2022. For TMPR, the year ahead is about nurturing our new team, working on even more ambitious campaigns, and doing more of what we love.
