Trust and reputation

Building industry trust and reputation underpins everything that we do, and we have continued to bring members together with policymakers and senior stakeholders across the year through our wide range of events, meetings and political engagement.

Our trust and reputation work

We strengthen understanding and awareness of the industry’s enabling role in society and the economy and the positive impacts it has on people’s daily lives right across the country.

“It has great convening power and is a voice heard by No 10 and relevant departments.”

With the support of our Public Affairs Group, we deliver our work by:

  • Engaging with HM Government, MPs, policymakers, devolved governments, opinion formers and other key stakeholders to effectively communicate and promote the work undertaken by members and across the organisation.
  • Drawing on industry policy themes to underpin an ongoing engagement programme that supports the enhancement of the industry’s reputation among key opinion formers.
  • Using our regions and nations work to expand the voice of the industry across the country, delivering policy positions in relation to long-term competitiveness issues.
