A new strategic public affairs and communications consultancy, Hedry, has launched, founded by experienced advisors Kevin McKeever and Nathan Parsad-Wyatt.

Hedry offers trusted counsel to organisations navigating a rapidly evolving political, economic, and social landscape. Combining political intelligence with commercial insight, the consultancy will work across four core practice areas: public affairs, corporate communications, planning and the built environment, and strategic advisory offering trusted advice for a changing landscape.

Positioned at the intersection of politics, policy, business and place, Hedry supports clients in influencing public debate, navigating complex local, regional and national decisions, and engaging confidently with decision-makers at every level.

Kevin McKeever, who also founded and continues to lead strategic communications consultancy Lowick, said: “We’re launching Hedry at a time of major transition in British public life, and with it, a growing demand for trusted, outcome-focused advice. Nathan and I bring complementary experience from across Westminster, corporate boardrooms, and communities on the ground, and we’re excited to help clients adapt, influence, and lead.”

Nathan Parsad-Wyatt, formerly Director of Communications at New West End Company, added: “Whether it’s shaping national policy, influencing local decision-making, or guiding clients through complex planning and political landscapes — today’s environment demands clarity, pace and strategic direction. Hedry brings those together with one purpose: helping clients take control and lead with confidence.”

While Hedry will operate as a standalone business, it is designed to complement - not replace - Kevin McKeever’s existing consultancy, Lowick, which continues to serve a broad range of clients with Kevin as Managing Director.
