THE PR AGENCY FOR CHARITIES

Creating coverage, achieving impact

We make change happen for charities and social interest companies.

Cause Communications enables charities and community interest companies to raise their voices and build their brand visibility in national and international media.

We are two times the winners of the News Media Association's Campaign Of The Year, the only PR company to achieve this accolade. Our founder Sam Carlisle has been named in the Independent Impact 50 Awards 2025, recognising the most innovative and influential PR practitioners who are shaping the future of communication. Sam is also recognised in the Women in PR's 40 over 40 Power List 2025.

With a combined background of senior national newspaper journalism and charity communications leadership, we have the experience to understand what the client needs and deliver the results.

We are known for having the best connections in journalism. As a boutique agency, we offer clients the full focus of our senior team.

We love what we do.
