The successful organisation will be provided with support to achieve their public
policy aims. This could be, for example, a higher profile in Westminster and Whitehall,
a specific change in policy or greater government backing for their cause.

 

Previous pro bono clients include the National Aids Trust (NAT) in 2008-09 and the
Spinal Injuries Association in 2007-08.

 

Chris Whitehouse, Managing Director, said: “This is an exciting opportunity for 
an organisation to get their foot in the door in Westminster and Whitehall and learn
how to take their campaigning to the next level. Our team really value being able
to provide a pro bono service and as the recession has had an impact on a lot of
worthy organisations we anticipate increased interest in the offer”.

 

Deborah Jack, Chief Executive of the National Aids Trust, said: “NAT were delighted
to be selected as Whitehouse’s pro bono client for 2008/9. Whitehouse have provided
us with a wide range of support from expert advice on influencing the EU and UK 
public policy process to assistance with our 21st birthday Parliamentary reception.

 

“With great commitment and enthusiasm they have helped us raise the profile of HIV
in the UK with key decision makers in Westminster. Even more importantly, they have
given us the tools to build on this in the future”.
