Effective public affairs requires an understanding how policy is made and implemented, the procedures involved, the decision-makers and who influences those decision-makers. Communicating the right message for the right stakeholder at the right time is vital for success.

Since 2002, HJCL has successfully navigated the public affairs minefield to help private, public and voluntary sector organisations shape a political and policy environment conducive to their ongoing operational success. We offer a range of services, including strategic counsel; parliamentary events, briefings, questions, motions and debates; parliamentary contact programmes; All Party Group secretariat work; stakeholder engagement; monitoring and political campaigning. Our campaign work was shortlisted to win the Best Use of Social Media category at the 2013 Public Affairs News awards.

To see how we put this into practice, please see our case studies section.
