Today, we’ve announced the acquisition of Deryn Consulting, Wales’ foremost government relations and strategic communications agency. Based in Cardiff and operating across the country, it strengthens our presence in Wales and means we now offer our clients complete UK coverage with offices – and expert teams – across the four nations. 

The move reinforces our position as a leading corporate affairs consultancy within the UK and significantly enhances our geographic presence in Wales; a nation at the forefront of the UK’s industrial strategy. 

As Wales prepares to lead the way in green energy and, with Labour in power in both Cardiff and Westminster, Deryn’s unrivalled expertise in Welsh political and public affairs will be instrumental in helping our clients navigate this dynamic landscape. 

Deryn has built a formidable reputation for its in-depth understanding of the Welsh political environment with its leadership hailing from backgrounds as special advisers, Senedd members and political editors.  

This acquisition brings Deryn’s localised knowledge and strategic capabilities to Cavendish, ensuring that clients benefit from communications expertise across the whole of the UK and Ireland. They bring a host of blue-chip clients that align with Cavendish’s specialisms in energy, infrastructure, manufacturing, tech and health.  

Carl Daruvalla, CEO of Cavendish, added: “It is an absolute pleasure to welcome Deryn to Cavendish. Their deep understanding of the Welsh political landscape and their reputation for excellence in communications are unparalleled. This acquisition aligns perfectly with our strategy to provide comprehensive, UK-wide services that are tailored to the specific needs of our clients. By bringing together our expertise under one roof, we can ensure that our clients receive the highest level of service across the whole of the UK.” 

Deryn’s owners, Cathy Owens and Nerys Evans, said: “We’re absolutely thrilled to bring Deryn into the Cavendish family as Cavendish Cymru. Together, we can offer an even broader range of services to help our clients tell their stories more effectively and make an even bigger impact. It’s an exciting step forward for both teams!”
