Parenting

Putting parenting brands and retailers directly in front of national journalists, positioning their products as must-haves for all parents across the UK. Our Spring/Summer and Autumn/Winter parenting events encourage meaningful media engagement and product discovery, encouraging high-quality coverage opportunities in a highly competitive parenting market.

The Christmas Press Show

This one-day press event allows parenting brands to connect face-to-face with hundreds of journalists from the UK’s most prominent publications. It’s a unique opportunity to showcase products in person and position them as must-have essentials or gifts through opportunities for reviews, shopping guides and broadcast features.

Power Pitching

Power Pitching connects brands and retailers directly with 25 national journalists from across the parenting and lifestyle space, all actively seeking standout products from maternal wellness and nursery décor to baby clothes, prams, feeding innovations, toys and more. Designed with busy schedules in mind, this fast-paced format helps time-poor PRs secure valuable media coverage opportunities in just one focused, high-impact hour. We host two parenting opportunities throughout the year, during the Spring and in the lead up to Christmas.
