Tender opportunity – Strategic/Risk Comms Agency

After more than 60 years of operating as a charitable grant-making foundation, Lankelly Chase has decided to redistribute all its assets and close within a five-year timeframe. Over the next five years, we will dismantle and close Lankelly Chase. We will relinquish control of our assets, including the endowment and all resources, so that money can flow freely to those doing life-affirming social justice work. We will make space to reimagine how wealth, capital, and social justice can co-exist in the service of all life, now and for future generations.

We are seeking a multi-disciplinary comms agency to support on a retainer basis to help provide high-level strategic comms advice and potentially some operational support as additional capacity may be required at times. 

Where we currently are

At this juncture of implementing our strategy we are navigating a lot of relational changes and governance risks.

Ensuring we communicate clearly and compassionately with all our stakeholders is of utmost importance. This needs to be in line with our values as well as protective of our organisational interests and our mission to bring an alternative way of creating social justice into being. 

What we are looking for 

We seek to retain an agency to provide PR advice and expertise, specifically to:

• Build on and stress test our strategic narrative and key messages for our critical audiences and crafting what we are saying now
• Respond to reputational issues through advice and potentially media/social media implementation as necessary
• Remain responsive and attentive to our ongoing communications work, in particular around legacy and influencing 
• Advise on and deliver any necessary insight or research to inform our communications work.

We are inviting proposals to meet this brief for submission by 30 August.
