THE PR AGENCY FOR CHARITIES

Where compassion means results

Making change happen for charities and social interest companies.

Cause Communications enables charities and community interest companies to raise their voices in national and international media. We have won the News Media Association’s Campaign of the Year for the past two years.

Coverage we secure for clients has ensured increased funding, raised profiles and led to important policy wins.

With a background in senior national newspaper journalism we know what news desks need and want because we have been on that end of the phone.

We are a small but perfectly-formed team. We excel at taking the strain from clients, creating an easy and effective working relationship that gets results.

Our clients receive close and specialist attention from senior staff.

We love what we do.

  • Increase fundraising

  • Raise profile

  • Change policy

  • Win a seat at the table

  • “As a Partnership we represent over 100 charities, which doesn't make us the easiest client, but Cause are always professional and straightforward, and able to adapt to changes. Working with Cause, we have been able to significantly raise the profile of disabled children both with the public and with government. The team is steeped in media and communications skills and expertise, and are creative and client-centered in their approach. I would not hesitate to recommend Cause.”

    Amanda Batten, Disabled Children's Partnership

  • “I worked with Cause Communications to create an industry-first comprehensive diversity guide into language. We had a fairly sketchy initial brief but Sam and the team helped us shape the project. They really understand the subject and what was required. The whole project and delivery was managed with passion, diligence, professionalism and relentless commitment. We have created a groundbreaking piece of work and this would not have happened without Sam and the team.”

    Shelley Bishton, Head of Creative Diversity, News UK

  • “Cause Communications are passionate, creative and a thoroughly positive force to work alongside. Through their contacts and in depth understanding of the media, they regularly secure national coverage and exposure that has enabled me to share essential knowledge on green issues, inform attitudes and ultimately encourage climate action.“

    Angela Terry, CEO, One Home

  • “The Cause team was able to quickly get across our campaign objectives and turnaround a brilliant media plan. Working closely with our ambassadors, our impact and reach was incredible, which featured national and regional TV, press and radio. Sam was also a joy to work with; combining a serene calmness with a tenacious approach and a black book to die for. Our media results were phenomenal, which went far beyond my wildest expectations. I will certainly be working with Cause Communications again for our next #PurpleSockDay campaign.”

    Andrew Douglass, Founder & CEO, Parallel Lifestyle

  • “We engaged Cause to support us with our annual awareness day. Sam was wonderful – intuitive, understanding and sensitive to our charity’s mission and had a clear vision of what we could achieve together. Sam worked with our patron, Jo Whiley, and was able to secure both national press and radio publicity for our work. As a small charity this type of expertise is hugely valuable, vastly extending our reach and messaging to new audiences.”
