IMS (Independent Media Services) operates as a trading subsidiary of Impress, meaning it is a separate commercial entity that provides consultancy and support services to socially responsible organisations. While IMS is connected to Impress, it operates independently in terms of its business activities, offering advisory, training, and consultancy services that go beyond Impress’ regulatory functions. However, IMS shares Impress’ commitment to high standards of journalism, media ethics, and best practices.
Yes.
IMS operates as a separate trading subsidiary, ensuring that its services do not interfere with the regulatory agreements signed by Impress members. If an Impress member receiving consultancy from IMS becomes the subject of an investigation, their consultancy agreement will remain unaffected. To maintain full independence, Impress’ regulatory team, committee members, and board members have no involvement with IMS.
However, to prevent any conflicts of interest, IMS does not provide content for member publications to use in news articles, social media posts, or any other platforms covered by their regulatory agreement with Impress.

profits, charities, campaign groups, medium-sized businesses and big corporates with CSR
arms. If you’re unsure whether we can help, feel free to reach out for more discussion.
