New consultancy launched by former BBC journalist

Former BBC television reporter Liz Fawcett has recently launched a Belfast-based consultancy specialising in communications, public affairs and research.

Liz Fawcett Consulting also draws on the skills and experience which Dr Fawcett acquired as a university lecturer in media studies and political communication.

Dr Fawcett says her company offers a unique blend of analytical, communications and research skills: “Many organisations say that straightforward public relations firms often lack any real understanding of the policy and strategic sides of their operations. Conversely, many strategic planning and policy specialists don’t understand public relations.

“We can solve that problem. We provide a ‘one-stop shop’ - helping you ensure that the strategic planning, communications and policy aspects of your organisation are brought together into one seamless whole.”

Liz Fawcett Consulting is targeting itself primarily at businesses and organisations which wish to make a positive impact on society through their communications and public affairs work.

“More and more businesses are finding they can enhance their competitiveness by embracing the principle of corporate social responsibility,” says Dr Fawcett. “Recent research has shown that no less than 86% of consumers view a company in a more positive light if it’s seen to be acting to make the world a better place.

“Liz Fawcett Consulting can assist firms to do precisely that – working to improve society is an effective way of working to improve your business.”
