Dea Parkin occasionally works as a freelance journalist and over the years has had numerous articles and stories published in Furnishing (trade press), as well as one or two pieces in Lancashire Magazine and elsewhere.
This has occasionally been of benefit to client companies; for example when they have been promoting a product relevant to the feature, or have had something pertinent to say on an issue being discussed.
However, Dea’s journalism has been an asset to our clients in another important way: learning what a journalist needs from the other side of the fence, and being able to put this into practice on behalf of PR client companies.

Dea is pleased to accept commissions. Her areas of expertise are:

• the furniture and furnishings industry
• tennis; the game, the professional tour and local clubs
• history, especially sixteenth century (Dea has a BA degree in History)
• literature and drama
• the environment; nature and conservation
