About Bassline
Bassline Strategy is a consultancy dedicated to helping socially impactful organisations reach their audiences and their potential. Drawing on years of experience in policy, research, communications and politics, Bassline combines innovative research methods and a hands-on approach to advocacy to help clients navigate a changing landscape. The company has been highly commended for its work by the PRII and PRCA's Awards for Excellence in Public Relations.
​
Bassline Strategy was founded by Managing Director David Kitching, who spent much of his career working with a leading EU think tank in Brussels, the Foundation for European Progressive Studies, followed by senior roles in social research, broadcast management, public affairs and PR in the UK and Ireland. Bassline seeks to combine this experience to provide an effective tool in evidence-led advocacy and strategic communication.
David's work constantly evolves to meet new needs and challenges, through professional training and strategic partnerships. This has included participation in the Global Messaging Fellowship, taught by messaging expert Anat Shenker Osorio, Hope-based Communications training by human rights campaigner Thomas Coombes and Interim Executive Training for NGO leaders, facilitated by CO3.
