Terence Fane-Saunders

Spear’s Review

Clients have long turned to Chelgate when ‘they have lost control of their own narrative’, whether because of a specific event or even due to a campaign by hostile actors. ‘Our job is to put clients back in command,’ says Terence Fane-Saunders, founder and executive chairman.

The firm operates in the sensitive areas of reputation protection and crisis management, and is proudly discreet. Clients include HNWs and their families, governments, NGOs, corporations and political movements. The firm is able to activate intelligence-backed advocacy and counter cyber-warfare techniques.

Fane-Saunders once told Spear’s: ‘So many PR people see themselves as being in the communications business. It’s a bit like saying surgeons are in the scalpel business. Communications are a tool we use, and must use with great skill and expertise.’
