BellPress helps organisations communicate with the editorial judgement of a journalist and the strategic judgement of an adviser. Every engagement begins by understanding what is genuinely worth saying, why it matters and how to communicate it with clarity, credibility and purpose.
As AI reshapes communications, organisations need more than content. They need editorial judgement, strategic thinking and trusted advice to shape how they are understood across media, digital platforms and the AI-driven information environment.
About Alex Bell - Founder & Director
Alex Bell - NCE-qualified journalist, PRCA Diploma in Public Relations, former COO of a communications agency - founded BellPress in 2021 and has spent two decades working across journalism and strategic communications.
As a business journalist, he reported on high-growth sectors, interviewed founders, CEOs and policymakers, and covered everything from Manchester's economic transformation and Premier League finances to Nobel Prize-winning scientific research.
That editorial background isn't separate from BellPress. It underpins it.
It shapes how BellPress assesses stories, challenges assumptions, identifies what matters and helps organisations communicate with authority, credibility and strategic focus.
Why we are different
BellPress is built on editorial judgement. Alongside advising clients, Alex has undertaken commissioned journalism for Insider Media across the UK, giving clients the benefit of a journalist's judgement on what makes news.
Clients work directly with Alex throughout every engagement. BellPress isn't built around layers of account management or content production at scale.
It's built around thoughtful advice, editorial judgement and trusted relationships with organisations that care how they are understood.
