Association of Professional Political Consultants
Welcome to the website of the Association of Professional Political Consultants (APPC). The APPC is the representative and regulatory body for UK public affairs professionals in the consultancy sector.
The APPC has three main roles:
- To ensure transparency and openness by maintaining a register of political consultants
- To enforce high standards by requiring members to adhere to a code of conduct
- To promote understanding of the public affairs sector, and the contribution made by political consultants to a properly functioning democracy, amongst politicians, the media and others
Organisations using political consultants come from the voluntary, campaigning and public sectors, as well as from private industry. By employing consultancies which are members of the APPC they can be sure that their consultants operate within a strict ethical framework.
Membership of the APPC should be a pre-requisite for responsible organisations seeking to engage a political consultancy.
