Cartwright extends Notts Pride partnership for fifth year

Nottingham-based full-service marketing agency Cartwright has renewed its support of Notts Pride as part of its ongoing relationship with the organisation.

Cartwright will once again handle all the event’s public and media relations in the run-up to the annual event, as well as co-ordinating the press and talent relations throughout the day of the city-wide event.

In addition, the agency – which is headquartered in the Lace Market – will be organising and managing a business mixer event to drum up support in the leadup to the event, which takes place on Saturday, 26 July.

Addie Kenogbon-Harley, account director at Cartwright and event lead for Notts Pride, said: “As an agency with an ongoing, significant commitment to social value and equality, diversity and inclusion, working with Notts Pride is not only a great fit, but also a huge honour for us.

“This is the fifth year we’ve worked alongside the organisers, and we couldn’t be happier to return for 2025 with the extended brief of bringing together the fantastic businesses of Nottingham and the wider county for a mixer that will help raise the vital funds that allow Notts Pride to continue to be the region’s largest free Pride event.”

Alongside the ongoing event management work, Cartwright will also be charged with running Notts Pride’s social channels including the creation of a new logo and refreshed branding.

Leigh Ellis, chair at Notts Pride, said: “We are really thrilled that Cartwright will be supporting Notts Pride in 2025. The team are amazing and their dedication to excellence has helped us grow and extend Notts Pride’s reach beyond what we could have expected.”

As part of its ongoing commitment to local causes, Cartwright will supplement its support with four days of pro-bono work. The agency delivered more than 400 hours of ESG work in 2024 and helped to fundraise more than £125,000 in support of local charities and causes including Nottingham College, Television Workshop, Switch Up and Juno Women’s Aid.

The agency now boasts a 37-strong team of PR, digital, social media, brand and marketing experts. The agency is Great Place to Work certified and was named as the 24th best small business in the UK for wellbeing.
