When things go wrong, we help you get it right.

 

Crises can impact councils of all shapes and sizes. Whether it's disruption to council services, a councillor saying something inappropriate on social media, a viral complaint or tricky FOI request, reputational issues can escalate fast. The real question is: will your council be prepared when it comes to communicating with the community, the press and media and other stakeholders during and after a crisis?

​

The Crisis Recovery Pack gives you rapid access to expert guidance, messaging support and a practical plan, so you can respond with professionalism, clarity and calm. We’ll help you manage the moment and put systems in place to reduce future risks. Because in the face of public pressure, confidence is your greatest asset.
