The Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) has welcomed 21 organisations as Corporate Affiliate members from April to September 2026. They include a devolved legislature, government agencies, universities, communications agencies, and more.
These new members join a community of over 300 Corporate Affiliates, each committed to developing their PR and communications teams and upholding the highest ethical and professional standards.

The latest corporate members to join the CIPR are:

A warm welcome to our new Corporate Affiliate members. This group stretches from the Northern Ireland Assembly to the Royal British Legion, and from national publishers to small specialist agencies. What they share is a belief that the people who speak for an organisation should be well trained and held to a recognised standard. That belief is spreading, and our corporate community is stronger for it. I look forward to getting to know our new members and supporting their teams over the year ahead.
