From Halo Media to CommsKit

Halo Media is the consultancy behind CommsKit, with 18 years’ experience delivering brand-led internal communications for complex organisations. Learn more about our transition from Halo to CommsKit here.

CommsKit is built on that experience.

Over time, we recognised that the same challenges – fragmented requests, inconsistent messaging and over-stretched teams – were appearing again and again. CommsKit formalises the frameworks, systems and ways of working that previously lived in people’s heads.

The thinking, experience and standards remain the same. CommsKit makes them easier to access, scale and sustain.

What our clients say

We are often brought in because internal teams need experienced, steady support – not another agency learning on the job.
