STRATEGIC COMMS + PUBLIC AFFAIRS +

SHAPE OPINION AND INFLUENCE POLICY

To WIN HEARTS AND CHANGE MINDS, you need more than good intentions — you need SHARP STRATEGY AND STRONG RELATIONSHIPS.

I help you identify your influencing goals, develop policy positions, and craft campaign strategies that cut through. From shaping powerful narratives to connecting with the people that matter, I’ll give you the tools to shift opinion, navigate power, and deliver real-world impact.

My work includes campaign strategy development, public affairs and advocacy, crisis communications, brand and reputation management, and positioning organisations for government funding. Through consulting, training, and hands-on support, I equip clients with the skills, confidence, and strategies they need to influence change and strengthen their reach and impact.

My experience spans in-house roles, agency work, and executive leadership, giving me a unique ability to bridge policy, campaigning, and communications. Clients trust me not only for my insight and expertise but for my strong network.

HOW I HELP:

  • Together, we’ll create and deliver strategic campaigns that influence decision-makers, mobilise supporters, and achieve real-world impact. Whether you’re shaping policy, shifting opinion, or driving behaviour change, I help you turn ambition into action.

  • I help you craft the messages that matter and deliver them with clarity and confidence — across the right platforms and to the audiences that count. From media handling to integrated communications planning, I’ll ensure your voice cuts through.

  • Get a clear picture of how your organisation is perceived — and how to strengthen your influence. I’ll audit your profile, map your networks, and provide practical strategies to amplify your brand, sharpen your positioning, and build trust with the people who matter.

  • From public affairs to grassroots partnerships, I help you build strategic relationships with politicians, civil servants, partners, and influencers — ensuring your organisation is seen, heard, and respected where it counts.

  • If you want to secure public funding, credibility is everything. I help mission-driven organisations build the profile and trust needed to stand out. Through smart strategy and targeted engagement, I’ll help you demonstrate your value, and become the clear, credible choice for funders.
