We'll still be here and now available nationally Though our name and branding have changed, we're still here offering the same tried and tested services. The new structure of the national agency allows us to work across England, with offices in Manchester and London and a team of Regional Directors. This means we have even more expertise and can provide coverage across the whole country wherever our services are needed. We have a new website www.theaudienceagency.org will feature news, events and resources, as well as information about the agency. However, we plan to keep www.audienceslondon.org live until further notice, as it provides a valuable source of information. We are working on an ambitious project, in partnership with the AMA, and funded by ACE Strategic Funds (Best Practice), to build a Knowledge Bank. Contacting us We now have new email addresses, so if you need to contact us please do so on . Alternatively, you can find our full staff list with contact details here.
