The Media Relations team promotes the University, its staff, and their work to the wider public through the media. We are the public face of the University and are responsible for protecting and enhancing the University’s reputation.

We draft media releases, record podcasts, take pictures and produce statements. We also offer advice on how you should approach interviews with journalists to ensure you get your message across accurately, concisely and with impact.

How we can help

• Generating media coverage
• Media training
• Difficult situations and crises

Radio interviews

Participate in radio interviews from the comfort of Heslington Hall. Our high-quality ISDN line is available for use during normal office hours, and outside those times by special arrangement. Training in the use of the line is provided.
