Each year Shepherd and Wedderburn undertakes a review whereby organisations are invited to submit a proposal to become our ACP. Proposals are evaluated against the following criteria:
  • Innovation
  • Cost/Value for Money
  • Audience
  • Deliverables
  • Management Procedures
  • Fit with Shepherd and Wedderburn and our brand values
  • Geographic coverage (local/regional/national)
The firm works closely with appointed charities to support their projects and help them achieve their objectives.
