About us

Empica is one of the South West’s longest-established PR and communications agencies, founded in 1989 and proudly based in Bristol. For over three decades, we’ve helped organisations across the UK shape their stories, protect their reputations, and build lasting relationships with the audiences that matter most.

Our team is made up of former journalists, editors, videographers, and content specialists — people who understand how the media really works and how to create stories that resonate. That real-world experience underpins everything we do, from proactive media relations and content strategy to sensitive crisis communications and internal messaging.

We work across a wide range of sectors, including property and planning, healthcare and IVF, professional services, education, charities, and funeral care. Whether we’re launching a major housing development, raising awareness for a fertility clinic, or managing a reputational challenge, we tailor every message with clarity, purpose, and impact.

Empica offers a full suite of PR services including press engagement, strategic communications, social media support, copywriting, photography, video production, stakeholder outreach, and media training. Our flexible approach means we can operate as your full-service PR partner or provide targeted support when you need it most.

Clients trust us to be calm under pressure, creative when it counts, and honest at every step. We believe in communication that cuts through noise and builds real understanding - not just headlines.
