Viva Communications

Beth Whittaker is a communications consultant with more than 30 years' experience, specialising in learning, rural & urban regeneration and ethical businesses. She is increasingly working with social enterprises, charities and small businesses in and around Stroud and Gloucestershire. Beth trained and worked as a newspaper journalist for ten years before moving into PR in the mid 1980s as an Account Director on consumer and business-to-business clients for one of the UK's most successful regional PR agencies. In the early 1990s, she launched her own business. She takes great pride in developing creative, long-term working relationships with her clients, helping them develop confidence in their own ability to communicate more effectively, both externally and internally. This sharing of skills not only takes place during day to day client contact but also, more specifically, through a series of Viva Communications training workshops.
