Unlocking progress for people and the planet
Strategic Communications Advice
I'm Geraldine Platten.
I run Vida, a strategic communications consultancy that enables organisations to navigate complex challenges and unlock progress for people and the planet.
I bring decades of experience building the brands and reputations of national and international organisations.
I have driven transformative change at local, national and global scale for the UK government, world-leading institutes, and non-profits.

-
demonstrated impact,

engaged & motivated staff to embrace change & achieve business-critical objectives,
-
grew brands, reputations and licenses to operate on sensitive issues,
-
delivered high profile national policy outcomes,
