Hanover Communications is a UK-based PR and lobbying firm founded in 1998 by Charles Lewington. The firm was known as Media Strategy until 2007. It lobbies for a large number of pharmaceutical companies (see clients below).

Controversies, conflicts of interest and the revolving door

'Cash for access'

Hanover was criticised in September 2007 in what was dubbed a 'cash for access' story. A strategy document that Hanover had produced suggested it could organise a trip to Downing Street as part of a £181,000 bid to run the Medical Technology Group, a coalition of industry and patient groups linked to the Association of British Healthcare Industries (ABHI).

According to a report in The Sunday Telegraph, the pitch suggested Hanover would try to secure a picture with Gordon Brown for £5,100. It also claimed that it would seek access to Dawn Primarolo, the Paymaster General. The package was offered for Medical Technology Week, in which a group of patients visits the Treasury, Department of Health and No 10. “We will work to secure photocalls with ministers. The key photocall will be with Gordon Brown,” it says. A document sent to the ABHI also mentions Nicola Murphy, a former adviser to Mr Brown.

Ms Murphy was to join Hanover as an associate director the following month. The pitch says: “As well as ... a five-year spell in the Treasury, Nicola has been working in the Prime Minister’s private parliamentary office for 12 months handling Gordon Brown’s leadership election.”[1]

Revolving door

Many Hanover staffers have backgrounds in politics, or have gone on to become politicians themselves.

In April 2014 former Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) policy adviser Alison Woodhouse joined the firm as head of its energy and resources division. A month later Hanover bagged as a senior policy adviser Julia Goldsworthy, who was previously a longstanding Treasury SPaD to Danny Alexander and former shadow Lib Dem, chief secretary to the Treasury. Goldsworthy has been re-selected as Lib Dem candidate for Camborne and Redruth, a seat she lost by just 66 votes to the Tories in 2010. [2]

Former Hanover associate Penny Mordaunt was a minister at the Department for Local Government and Communities from July 2014 until May 2015 when she was appointed as the UK's first armed forces minister.

Lobbying for frackers

Hanover handles two high-profile accounts for controversial firms Cuadrilla and Irish shale explorer Tamboran. Both companies also use other lobbying firms.

It also lobbies for other members of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Unconventional Oil and Gas such as Tata Steel.

As at the 31 August 2015, Hanover Communications are a registered member of the Association of Professional Political Consultants, where a breakdown of their controversial fracking links are shown.[3]

Lobbying for the booze industry

In Sept 2007 drinks giant Diageo hired lobbying firm Hanover Communications as its retained UK public affairs agency, to help it in what Diageo described as "challenging policy environment" - The Government was stepping up its efforts to curb binge-drinking. Diageo is thought to be paying Hanover at least £100,000 a year. Hanover MD Charles Lewington said: ‘We will be helping Diageo to raise awareness of its ­responsible-drinking ­activities in government. We will also be ­advising on ­ongoing ­discussions with ­officials about the best way of ­promoting responsible ­consumption.’[4]

Lobbying for bankers

In April 2011 the Association for Financial Markets in Europe (AFME) secured Hanover to raise its profile across Europe. Formed in late 2009, the AFME lobbies national and international governmental institutions on behalf of the financial industry against what it deems to be unnecessary regulation. The account is thought to be worth in excess of six figures annually, and was to be led by director Laura Chisholm. [5]

In October 2010 Goldman Sachs appointed Hanover as 'fresh agency backing in the UK to help it to keep abreast of the coalition government’s plans for the banking sector" according to Public Affair News. Hanover worked alongside Lexington Communications providing UK political consultancy, and Cicero Consulting, which provides Goldman with EU monitoring. Leading the account for Hanover is senior account director Laura Chisholm.[6]

Lobbying for education 'reformers'

Hanover has a history of working for corporations in the education industry: privately-operated school chains; publishers and IT companies. Clients in 2015 include: Hachette, the huge global educational publisher; and Microsoft, a longstanding client; and PricewaterhouseCoopers.

Previous clients involved in the schools market include: GEMS Education (a declared client 2012-13); Pearson UK (a client in 2011); Edison Learning (2011); Edexcel (2010); BPP (2010).
