Aquarius PR has two religion consultants, Suzanne Evans and David V Barrett: - . Suzanne Evans
Suzanne Evans has a BA (Hons) degree in Religious Studies from the University of Lancaster.

After graduating, Suzanne worked as a reporter for BBC local and network radio, specialising in religious affairs. She worked extensively at home and on foreign assignment for the BBC Radio 4 religion & ethics programme, Sunday, and for what is now called Reporting Religion on the BBC World Service. Suzanne also freelanced for the national broadsheets and the religious press.
Now, Suzanne makes regular contributions to diverse media channels (such as the BBC1 Heaven and Earth show, The Church of England Newspaper and My Spirit Radio), either commenting on or appearing as an authority on religion and religious issues. She is a member of the Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) and the NUJ.
