By Royal appointment

In the run up to arguably the two most important years in the Club’s history and as it further develops its strategic marketing policy, the Royal Southern, whose Admiral is HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, has appointed Peta Stuart-Hunt as its Press Officer to exclusively co-ordinate all of its future media output.

PR Works will assist the Club’s marketing team in shaping and directing its media and communications output, covering the varied and lively programme of news and events leading up to and throughout its 175th. anniversary celebrations in 2012. In confirming the appointment, Royal Southern Vice Commodore, Mark Inkster, commented:

“The Club is on the verge of the two biggest and most important years in its distinguished history with an ambitious and exciting programme of events that is already well advanced in its planning.

“Peta brings an added dimension to our team, and she offers us not only her immense experience in the leisure marine industry but one of the best track records for getting quality results with creative flair and sense of humour. It's a perfect fit for what we are looking to achieve here.”
