After eight great years at St Peter’s Marina, Newcastle’s floating PR agency Highlights has a new berth at Royal Quays Marina in North Shields.
Highlights said in a statement: “It’s a great move for the business as it places us near to some of our key clients and offers opportunities for more people to visit us and have a lovely cup of coffee onboard.”
Among the first events and products Highlights will be working with from its new home are Shipmove, an app from former harbour master and master mariner Captain Mike Nicholson which seeks to address the problem of ships breaking free from their moorings due to a combination of bad weather and insufficient mooring ropes. Shipmove specialises in navigation strategies, marine civil engineering consultancy and maritime risk.
Highlights is also publicising the ever-popular Blyth Live Festival, funded by Blyth Town Council, which will this year be headlined by Liberty X and 911 on June 17, and the North Tyneside Business Forum, which will feature local marketing experts giving business tips to help them “Rise and Shine” at an event in Whitley Bay on Thursday 30th March.
