We love to work with organisations to understand what changes to policy and legislation would make the most difference to your beneficiaries and drive meaningful improvements to their lives.
Policy development: Our in depth understanding of the UK policy environment across sectors means we are adept at working with you whatever stage you’re at on your policy development journey. A few of the areas we cover include: working with you to understand and obtain what additional research or service insights are needed, analysing the external policy, legislative and commissioning environments in your sector to develop the most effective policy solutions and developing effective messaging rooted in evidence to help you make the strongest case.
Policy influencing strategies: We take a Theory of Change approach to policy influencing strategy, looking at the ultimate outcomes aimed for by your organisation, policy strategy or individual campaign, analysing the entire picture from where you want to be all the way back to where you are now. We take a holistic view of the strategy needed to achieve your goals, and pull together the right mix of our policy development, public affairs advocacy and awareness raising campaigns skillsets and expertise needed to get you there. By considering all aspects (including what we need from trusted partners like our external media relations adviser), we ensure the approach agreed is cohesive, strategic, and aligned with your long-term objectives – bringing your key stakeholders along with us.
Principle have quickly become an essential part of our team once more, improving our engagement with MPs and other stakeholders, and raising our profile amongst policy makers. We find their perspectives and insight from across the charity sector a fantastic resource, whilst their ability to adapt to our organisation’s ways of working, their can-do attitude, and clear dedication to our cause are all greatly appreciated.

I consider the call to bring Principle on board in March last year as one of my very best decisions as a leader.

Principle Consulting have bought extensive research and public affairs expertise to the Patient Information Forum’s work on integrating the provision of health information into the delivery of care. From day one, the consultants have felt like members of our team, getting up to speed with the topic area quickly, and driving the project forwards. We really appreciate their committed, proactive and flexible approach.

Achieving cut through during the pandemic has been challenging, but thanks to the expertise and support of Principle Consulting, the work we did to highlight the impact of COVID-19 on our community gave us the platform we needed to raise the profile of rare autoimmune conditions with key decision makers and the opportunity to help shape solutions.

It has been an absolute pleasure working with Principle. Our Consultant hit the ground running and was an integral part of the team.
John James, Chief Executive
Principle provided strategic public affairs insight and campaigns advice, including ensuring our campaign objectives reached senior decision makers and the wider public. They've been brilliant on the creative side, supporting us to develop a highly engaging campaign video and microsite.
Children's Charities Coalition
Principle Consulting made sure that our voice was heard when it mattered most. As an organisation whose people and services felt the worst ravages of the pandemic, we needed a consultancy we could trust to help us lobby behind the scenes and raise our voices in public – and Principle have done just that.
Emily Bird, Head of Communications, MHA
As a result of receiving ongoing support from Principle, we've had huge successes in our advocacy work. In the past year our parliamentary profile has increased a vast amount, Principle helped us to secure a meeting with the immigration minister as well as put our agenda in front of the Home Affairs Select Committee.
