Agency news: apt marketing and PR nominated for three awards for work with member organisations

MemCom Awards 2026

We are thrilled to announce that we have been nominated in THREE highly contested categories at the 2026 Memcom Excellence Awards!

We have been shortlisted for Best Magazine, Circulation more than 20K (Income <£5M) and Best Publication for our work on the Friends of Westonbirt Arboretum member magazine alongside our design partner Oyster Design.

We have also been nominated for Best Agency alongside some outstanding industry peers.

“We are ecstatic to be shortlisted for three awards at the Memcom Excellence Awards this year.

It’s an extremely competitive shortlist so to even be nominated by the judges is a testament to the quality and effort that went into this project, ably supported by our specialist team.

Our focus was on high-growth, maximised potential, and creating and sustaining an engaged membership base. This strategic approach and specialist delivery secured a record number of members for the Friends of Westonbirt Arboretum, with a 513% ROI for the campaign.

Thank you to the judges and Memcom for this incredible recognition of our work and the impact it has had.”
