About Chris
I have over 25 years’ experience of managing, devising and delivering communications, PR and marketing campaigns across the UK and am a Chartered Public Relations Practitioner with a BA (Hons) in Politics and Communications from the University of Liverpool.
I specialise in strategic comms and PR around infrastructure, planning and regeneration projects and also lead the DTW team which includes specialists across a range of areas including membership organisations and regulatory bodies.
Major projects include:
Communications and PR lead throughout the 15 year planning, development, public inquiry, construction, introduction of a tolling brand and opening of the £1.86billion Mersey Gateway Bridge – the largest new toll bridge project in the UK in recent years, now used by 25 million vehicles a year
Successful communications support for SUEZ helping it secure planning permissions and environmental permits for a wider range of waste treatment and recycling projects at locations across the north of England and Scotland over many years
Comms, PR and public affairs lead for the High Court Enforcement Officers Association (HCEOA) helping it engage with policymakers, stakeholders, regulators and the media
Award winning comms and PR lead on development and construction of Northern Spire bridge – a major new infrastructure project in North East England – generating overwhelmingly positive, stakeholder, media and community support
