Public Affairs

Over recent years, the importance of public affairs to the business community has grown considerably, particularly as the number of political institutions has multiplied, and the level at which political power on many issues is exercised has changed.

Traditionally, public affairs work was concentrated in the environs of the ‘Westminster village’. However, with the growing importance of European institutions, and power being devolved to the Scottish Parliament, the Welsh Assembly, and increasingly influential local authorities - and now regional development agencies, those wishing to get their message across to politicians need support from those with an excellent understanding of how modern political power is now structured.
 
Eclipse PR Ltd was founded with public affairs as one of its central disciplines. Our public affairs work is headed up by our Managing Director, Adrian Yalland.  With an academic background in politics, a working career in political communications, and a strong network of contacts within the political community, Adrian has spent many years working in Westminster, Brussels and Strasbourg. He has worked on a number of successful political campaigns, including managing the media requirements of one of the highest-profile political campaigns of the last decade.
 
Eclipse PR Ltd can therefore offer you support to achieve your objective, whether it is:

  • implementing a community affairs strategy

  • lobbying central government

  • an application for funding

  • an application for planning consent

  • a bid for a contract
