About us

Yvonne Reay, Managing Director

Yvonne started her career in the NHS, before moving into journalism in 1990. Moving to the other side of the fence, Yvonne then joined one of the UK’s biggest providers of communications services to the public sector, Atlas Media Group.

In October 2007 Yvonne set up her own company, Act PR Ltd. Her award winning work has involved profile raising, media handling and high level crisis management, guiding clients through Panorama interviews, CQC reports and door stepping journalists.

With her excellent health, education and local government background, her team has already built up a growing portfolio of clients.

Greg Moulds, Associate Account Director

A former journalist, Greg has spent nearly 20 years working across the health sector, six of them at executive level within the NHS before leaving to work on a consultancy basis. He works alongside the Act PR team to manage various public sector accounts and is particularly involved in public engagement strategies.

In the NHS Greg led the communications function at two of the UK’s most high profile NHS Trusts, first as Head of Communications at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and then as Director of Corporate Affairs at The Royal Cornwall NHS Trust.  He is also a former Director of specialist healthcare consultancy Atlas (which became part of Tribal Group).

Melissa Cooper, Account Manager

Melissa is a communications specialist with several years NHS and public sector communications and marketing experience. 

Creativity comes as second nature to Melissa, who is as happy turning her hand to design and multimedia creation, as she is writing articles or arranging interviews. 

She's passionate about campaigning, with plenty of experience in getting impact on a shoestring budget. From development through to execution and evaluation, Melissa enjoys the strategy and problem solving side of a campaign as much as the social media and press calls. 

A champion for new and developing communications techniques, Melissa is eager to keep abreast of the latest trends and has trained in Google around AdWords and SEO, as well as completing the coveted public sector ‘Social Media Expert’ course.
