Later this month the charities will present to a panel of judges, outlining a specific PR campaign they would like help administering. A few days later the three winning charities will be announced, each of whom will receive 14 days of pro bono PR support to sustain their programmes over a six-month period.
Any charitable organisation without a dedicated full time communications officer and an annual turnover of less than £2 million was eligible to enter the 2006 Challenge.
