Our Work

KOR planned and delivered the pre-planning application engagement for EXOq, Exeter College's proposed research and innovation compute environment in Oxford, preparing all communication and engagement assets, building the project website, hosting a three-day exhibition attended by more than 230 visitors and producing the Statement of Community Involvement. The outline application awaits determination.

KOR designed and delivered the public consultation for Paignton Pavilion, Fragrance Group's proposed 500-guest conferencing and events venue on Paignton seafront. 86 per cent of respondents backed a new facility of this kind, and the application awaits determination by Torbay Council.

Seven consecutive editions since 2019. KOR plans, writes, photographs and delivers the Englefield Echo, the 40-page annual review giving the Englefield, Benyon and Glenmazeran Estates a single voice from Berkshire to the Scottish Highlands.

Twelve months of engagement and two workshops united Newmarket's 80 trainers, 70 stud farms and wider horseracing cluster behind The Case for Newmarket, the industry's 10-to-15-year vision, launched to parliamentarians and press in April 2026.

KOR was Cavanna Homes' retained communications partner from 2009, spanning media relations, marketing, public affairs and crisis handling, through a decade-long governance transition and national Housebuilder Awards wins in 2019 and 2020.

Four tenant households, one two-day shoot and three films exploring 20 years of placemaking on an urban estate: KOR's series for The Benyon Estate in De Beauvoir Town.

KOR designed and delivered a pre-application consultation for client 360 Golf whose proposals to reinvigorate Teign Valley Golf Club within Dartmoor National Park included a redesigned 12-hole course, alongside other sport, leisure and hospitality facilities, within a large-scale nature restoration project. Planning permission was secured from Dartmoor National Park Authority in September 2025.

Three years of consultation, two exhibitions and more than 1,100 addresses engaged helped Water Lane, Exeter's 980-home canalside regeneration, win unanimous outline consent from Exeter City Council in January 2025.

More than a decade of communications and engagement helped the Lower Otter Restoration Project, the £15 million Clinton Devon Estates and Environment Agency scheme at Budleigh Salterton, win unanimous consent from East Devon District Council in January 2021.

KOR's consultation and communications programme helped ADC Kimberley secure full planning permission for Derriford District Centre, a new shopping and leisure destination on the former Seaton Barracks Parade Ground which is now home to Marks & Spencer, Aldi and Costa Coffee.

KOR's consultation and communications campaign helped Fragrance Group secure unanimous approval for a 161-bedroom hotel on Paignton seafront, now expected to welcome 95,000 guests and contribute £2 million to the local economy each year.

From concept to delivery, KOR spent seven years as the appointed communications consultancy for Exeter Science Park, the South West's centre for STEMM businesses, promoting its buildings, tenants and growth to the region and beyond.
