We will provide strategic communications advice based on your company’s specific needs. Services we can offer as part of an integrated communications package of support include:
Our support for charities and social enterprises is second to none. We understand the voluntary sector better than most because we’ve worked as part of it. Managing Director Helen Furnivall previously held senior strategy and communications roles at the British Red Cross. Our charity and social enterprise clients include Citizens Advice, Transform Lives and the People's Powerhouse event and movement.

Our approach to property PR and communications is different because unlike most agencies we’re working with companies and organisations across the community and place regeneration sector including charities, housing associations and think tanks. We will take a strategic approach to your communications needs, making sure you are engaging and not just broadcasting - telling the story about the difference your property development is making in terms of jobs, skills and place as well as telling the story of profits, ROI and sq ft.

Video storytelling is finally coming of age as a vital part of any communications campaign. If done well, short form video will make your content not only more interesting, but more shareable. Investing in social video – which could include offering your audience unique insights such as behind the scenes footage or video blog updates can really transform the impact of your brand.
We only work with camera operators who also work for the main TV channels, ensuring everything we produce for you is broadcast quality.

A brand is more than a logo. It's what people say when you're not in the room - and could well be your most important asset. We'll work with you to develop and test your brand identity, ensuring it resonates with your target audiences and clearly conveys your company ethos - what you believe in and what makes you different.
We'll work with you to develop a consistent tone of voice across all channels. And to devise targeted campaigns that get you noticed in the right places, with the right people and for all the right reasons.
Whether you want social media advice to improve what you’re doing already, Twitter training for your executive team or simply to hand over all your social media channels to be managed by us, we can help.
At High-Rise we see social as an important component of an integrated communications strategy - not an end in itself. And we are rigorous about measuring social’s impact on business goals, not just counting followers or retweets.
Saying the right thing in a crisis isn't hard. But it can seem a lot harder when journalists are beating down your door clamouring for an interview or when flak about your company starts going viral on social media.
Trust High-Rise to be your calm head in a crisis, giving you the advice and support you need when it's needed most. For more on our reputation management credentials click here.
At High-Rise we believe in being prepared.
- So even the toughest questions don't throw you, or make you say something you didn't intend.
- So you have three key messages and get the points you need to across in your interview.
- But also so you answer the question, rather than avoid it.

Writing content is easy. Writing content that people want to read and share is more difficult. We'll work with you to tell your story across every possible channel with imagination, creativity and flair. And we'll help your customers tell it for you.
Your company story is unique. It's what makes your brand different from your competitors so it's vital you tell your story in a way that resonates, using authentic language and imagery your target audiences will understand and relate to.
Badly managed internal or change communications can quickly become an external relations and brand problem. That's why we pay attention to our client's internal communications needs in a way most communications agencies don't.
Our senior team have worked with well known companies on restructures with a high degree of reputational risk if they go badly, ensuring employees are kept informed and engaged throughout the change process. It's part of what makes High-Rise different from other communications agencies.
