"The cost of becoming a candidate is not cheap and the process is a fairly prolonged one. Help may be at hand for candidates, however, in the form of a new and cost effective media training facility called Westminster Communications (part of the Synergie Group) located in the heart of Westminster. A facility that you can book (by the hour, half day or day) to simply brush up on your performance before a selection or media interview or pitch yourself into a more intense scenario by being grilled by a panel of media experts with instant TV analysis. At the end of the session you walk out with a DVD. Westminster Communications have all of the facilities to simulate press conferences, radio interviews, phone-ins, door-step interviews and journalist off camera briefings as well as being able to offer a network of the top media coaches and groomers in the business.
If you’re interested they can be contacted via training@westminstercommunications.com.
Good luck."
ConservativeHome has not received money for this recommendation and has no financial interest in Westminster Communications. Tim Montgomerie, Editor of ConservativeHome, knows the people behind the venture and could not recommend them more highly.
