We work very closely with the local media and our services include preparing releases and disseminating, digital photography of the event, setting up the event, inviting media to the functions and providing post event reports on media obtained. Media always attend out functions and report on same.

In terms of our social responsibility Nerve endeavors to incorporate development programs within its events or includes NGO organizations into its events. Over and above creating these opportunities for the less privileged or previously disadvantaged, Nerve’s Directors have also involved themselves in local sporting associations and National Water Sport Associations. Since 2011 we have created and managed on behalf of Diabetes SA the Global Diabetes Walk. This is an awareness walk and wellness expo to educate the public on Diabetes
