PR and marketing agency Liquid has been named outstanding public relations consultancy at an industry awards.

The Bromsgrove-based company won the prize at the South of England and Channel Islands region of the Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) PRide Awards.

It follows a silver award in the same category in the Midlands PRide awards last month and a gold in the issues or crisis management category.

In addition to its Worcestershire base, Liquid has offices in Guernsey, Jersey and consultants in London and is looking to move to a new office in Birmingham.

Chief executive Elisabeth Lewis-Jones said: "2014 is Liquid's tenth anniversary and to receive independent recognition and endorsement from our peers is both a great honour and humbling.

"We started the year being named consultancy of the year at the PRCA DARE Awards in the Midlands and retaining our 'Top 40 outside London' ranking.

"We're finishing 2014 with two golds and a silver in the PRide Awards and an exciting move for our UK team into Birmingham city centre which will be significant in our commitment to continuing to build our regional and national client base.

"These accolades highlight the talent and hard work shown by our teams but also, just as importantly, reflect the loyalty of our clients with the judges specifically mentioning our client retention rate."
