Membership & networking
Search for a PR supplier
There are two ways we can help you to find the PR consultancy or independent consultant to suit your requirements. Which one you choose will depend on how much of your own management time you wish to spend in searching for the right resource.

How to make a complaint against a member
Who may make a Complaint? Anyone, whether an organisation or an individual. You do not have to have suffered loss or damage in order to complain: you only have to believe that a Member of the Institute may have breached the Code of Conduct. Sometimes the Chartered Institute of Public Relations itself will initiate a Complaint or take over the role of Complainant, for instance if the Complaint raises a matter of general principle.
