This year, we’re proud to be the official sponsor of the Women in PR, Marketing & Communications category at the 2025 Athena Awards, a category very close to our hearts. Just last year, our Founder, Cerri McDonald, took home the very same award.
For us, this is a full-circle moment that speaks to the journey Prospect 13 has been on, and to the values that we live every day. Cerri’s story, leaping into self-employment following redundancy and growing Prospect 13 into a trusted marketing powerhouse, reflects everything the Athena Awards stand for: resilience, creativity and women driving real impact.
And while this award marked a milestone in our own story, our focus has always been on helping others shape theirs, by championing talent, building meaningful connections, and improving future outlooks through smart, honest marketing.
Honouring the Next Generation of Changemakers
Now part of this year’s judging panel, Cerri brings her bold perspective and depth of experience to the table, recognising what it takes to step up, be seen and lead with purpose in an industry that never stands still.
This year’s finalists are a testament to the talent, grit and creativity shaping the PR, marketing and comms landscape in the North East. It’s a privilege to shine a light on their achievements and play a role in supporting women pushing their industries, and their communities forward.
Why This Award Matters to Us
Our own work is built on helping businesses find their voice and tell their story with clarity and confidence. So, backing a platform that recognises women doing exactly that, often while running teams, companies, or their own shows, felt like a natural fit.
Join Us in Celebrating
We’ll be there on the day, alongside sponsors like Bloom, Laurie & Co, Buchan Wealth Management, and Acumen Financial Planning, backing the finalists and sharing in what’s always an uplifting, empowering event.
