Partner PR

Partner PR offers the most effective and experienced, pragmatic crisis communications service in the UK.

We believe the few so-called specialist crisis agencies offer an unworkable, academic approach to crises. We have seen self-appointed crisis experts in full-service agencies struggle to overcome their conflict of interest between achieving a client's goals and not upsetting their journalist "contacts." Our focus is on helping the client and getting the job done.

Using a full array of journalistic, legal, intelligence and communications techniques, we will ensure your crisis is closed down as a public story and that the rebuilding process can begin.

We are the only UK affiliate of the Institute of Crisis Management; the only agency that makes the bulk of its income from solving clients' problems.

Of course, like others, we can help develop your crisis plan, conduct crisis drills to ensure you work as a team, and monitor for potential threats, but we have a unique approach during a genuine drama.

When a big-five accounting firm was unjustly accused of doing "an Enron," we ensured the truth was heard and fully understood.

When a food manufacturer faced media interest in claims its products were contaminated, we killed the story.

When a company fell victim to a major blackmailing attempt, we helped it stay out of the media.

When a consumer company faced the publication in a national newspaper of claims against it by animal rights activists, we helped it to convey the truth of the situation to its key stakeholders.

Our clients say we help them stay cool whilst under fire and that our advice is "sound and effective." We say swift and decisive action shortens the life of crises and limits any damage to an organisation.
