It’s a hat trick for Pegasus!

Pegasus scoops the much-coveted “Consultancy of the Year” prize at the PR Week Awards 2014
Pegasus, the UK’s leading independent health communications consultancy, picked up the prestigious “Consultancy of the Year” award at Tuesday night’s PR Week Awards 2014.
Pegasus was also successful in the “Mid-Sized Consultancy of the Year” category (for agencies with UK turnover between £2m and £10m), and completed its hat trick winning the “Healthcare: Ethical & OTC Consumer” award for its work on Bayer Animal Health’s Slimewatch campaign.
This win marks Pegasus’s evolution from a traditional PR agency to an integrated comms consultancy that offers a multiservice approach to its clients, including social, digital and creative services.
With campaigns that span local, national and international markets and the creation of a network of global independent affiliate agencies across five continents, it’s no surprise that Pegasus represents a raft of well known companies and brands such as GSK, Pfizer, Bayer, Holland & Barrett, Bio-Oil and Danone to name a few. These awards are further confirmation that the consultancy continues to go from strength to strength, creating outstanding integrated campaigns that really bring healthcare into the mainstream. This is the third consultancy award win for the agency this year.
It has seen five years of double-digit growth, with last year’s fee income of £6m helping it climb ten places in this year’s PR Week Top 150 PR Consultancies report to number 38.
Fishburn CEO, Ali Gee said: “Pegasus has everything; it’s clear who they are, what they do and what makes them special.
Their purpose – inspiring health decisions – defines everything they do, and we were particularly impressed by the way they have reached beyond the healthcare sector.” 
Lisa Bradley, managing director at Pegasus, commented: “We’re absolutely delighted to have won, not just one, but three awards at the PR Week Awards this year. I’ve always looked at the winners of the “Consultancy of the Year” award with great admiration and am so proud that we are now that agency.”
