New Chair aims to top up IPR membership
The Institute of Public Relations (IPR) in Northern Ireland has appointed Lynne Crowther of Coca Cola Bottlers as its Chairman for 2003.
She succeeds Rosemary Allister following the IPR's annual general meeting this week.
The new chairman told members that she intends to further boost the organisation's growing membership and to build upon what had been a very successful year in 2002.
"Following a growth in membership of some 33% in the past year, it is my intention to further increase this by 20% in 2003, which would bring our membership in Northern Ireland to over 250," she said.
Ms Crowther has worked in the PR industry in Northern Ireland for over 15 years in consultancy and in both the private and voluntary sectors.
She was educated at De Montford University, and has worked as the Marketing Manager for Pizza Hut, the Coordinator for the United Nations' International Year of the Family, with ChildLine to establish a counselling base in Northern Ireland, and with various PR consultancies.
She is currently the PR manager for Coca-Cola Bottlers (Ulster) Ltd and is a board member of the Lyric Theatre in Belfast.
She has been a PR member for 15 years and a committee member of the IPR Northern Ireland since 2000.
