Resource Centre

Welcome to the Public Affairs Resource Centre, the comprehensive directory of public affairs, government relations, policy & communications providers.

Whether you are looking for political advice and strategy from a public affairs consultancy, experts to assist your European Affairs and International communications or a freelance consultant, you’ll find a helping hand in the listings. Public affairs consultants can increase your organisation’s capacity for communicating with opinion formers and legislators. Many firms and practitioners have specific issue/sector expertise in your area of operation, whether at a local or national level. Clients may include companies, charities, trade and representative associations, consumer bodies, law firms, trade unions, not-for-profit organisations and overseas governments.

Consultancies and event management practitioners also organise client events to deliver policy-focused outcomes such as a round-table, seminar or major conference, together with Parliamentary receptions, local community consultations or party conference fringe events. They can help to identify the relevant stakeholders with whom to engage, together with the issues that your organisation needs to bring to attendees' attention. Find someone to organise this all for you or view potential meeting venues.

Training providers can assist in boosting your team’s knowledge of public affairs, campaigning, media management and communications, policy development, influencing and understanding legislative processes.

It is essential that any public affairs work is based on the most up to date information and political monitoring forms this foundation. Research and polling providers offer communications research by communications experts.

Think Tanks carry out policy research and promote new policy ideas and priorities either with political leanings, cross-party or an independent non-partisan approach. Organisations and companies often support or partner with think tanks on broad-ranging or specific issue work.

Recruitment professionals with a specialist public affairs, policy and government communications focus can help in seeking out the right person for your organisation’s vacancy, or help to find your next career move.

Politics and industry links provides a listing of other useful public affairs related organisations and national, European and International political information sources.
