"Supporting charitable causes has been at the heart of Mackenzie PR since its inception and the team works exceptionally hard to ensure we give back to the community in which we operate."

Morven, Mackenzie PR

Every year, we work with two chosen charities, offering our PR services for free. Over the years we have worked with charities in a number of fields, treating them as we do all our retained clients. We provide them with proactive PR advice and campaign work which results in high profile, extensive media coverage for the organisations and their associated causes.

This year, we are working with:

• Befriend a Child (www.befriendachild.org.uk) - Scotland's oldest befriending service for underprivileged and disadvantaged children.
• Archway(www.archway.org.uk) - which supports adults and children with learning disabilities

Last, we were also the main organiser behind a new event for the city called Celebrate Aberdeen, which will be retuning on Saturday 9th June 2012.

Originally Morven's idea, this parade saw over 3000 members and service users of Aberdeen's third sector take to Union Street in a celebratory march on Saturday 11 June to highlight the diversity and impact of the city's charities, social enterprises and volunteering organisations.
