About  us

At the helm of SyvretMedia is Anita Syvret, who has spent a lifetime in journalism. 

There is little she doesn't know about the media industry (including social media), which can be a minefield for the uninitiated.

She knows how to handle the press and has the contacts to ensure your good news is heard in the right places. 

She is well versed in the local planning process and has been involved in the communications aspects of many significant planning applications. 

Crisis PR and damage limitation are her speciality, whether played out in the press, on Facebook or Twitter/X.  She loves a challenge and will see you through the darkest hours of publicity hell with sound advice and a steady hand.

She has often been at the sharp end when bad news breaks, handling major investigations and national disaster stories in 30 years as a journalist. Turning negatives to your advantage is possible - honest.

Anita was Editor of the Gloucestershire Echo in Cheltenham for 18 years and launched SyvretMedia in 2008. She is a judge for the acclaimed UK Press Awards.
