Public consultation
Priory is experienced at managing public consultations on behalf of clients including developers and public sector organisations.
We advise on strategy; research and develop consultation lists; develop messages and imagery to present the proposition to its various audiences; create appropriate consultation activities including questionnaires, presentations, ‘drop-ins’, discussion groups, meetings with interest groups, events and public exhibitions; create programmes of councillor lobbying and consultation activities; provide support on production of materials and websites; manage on-going media relations; and provide a contact point for questions from members of the public.
As experts in corporate public relations, Priory knows how to build a positive image for an organisation, project or person. It is also adept at managing reputation crises, turning around negative public perceptions to positive ones when needed.
Priory has managed the Brighton Marina Regeneration Projects’ public consultation and Brighton & Hove City Council’s planning department has said they will be using it as an exemplar for future schemes of how to conduct a pre-planning application consultation on a major development scheme.
