Applause from our clients
"The team were superb from start to finish in creating the PoP Fund visual identity and designing all the reports and templates. They did a huge amount of work for us (including designing a bespoke font!) for a very reasonable budget. They ended up doing more than we asked them to, and we are hugely grateful. I can’t recommend them highly enough."
Emma Frobisher
Senior Monitoring, Evaluations & Learning Manager, Comic Relief
"Thanks for everything – you’ve both been so lovely to work with. If I need a design agency in the new job, I’ll be knocking on your door"
Tima Moledina
Communications Manager, Healthwatch UK
"We had such a successful shoot. I’m amazed we covered so much in such a tight schedule, not only ticking off our clinical shots, but also capturing our fundraising images – all of which look fantastic. Thanks again for your patience, diligence and for putting up with our many requests, as well as for your understanding and sensitivity around our patients and staff."
David Watson
Brand Manager, Sue Ryder
"My team had an opportunity to use some last minute funding for piece of work which we hadn’t anticipated. When we initially approached you for the work, we hadn’t fully articulated our idea but Laura and the team were incredible in supporting us to really narrow our brief. They really took the time to understand our context, our aims, our resources, to ask all the right questions and help us make decisions and concessions as needed along the way, ultimately producing exactly what we needed, on time and within budget."
Alison McKinley
Head of Social Change & Impact, Comic Relief
"The launch was a great success. The illustrations, report and policy brief were all big hits. Thanks for delivering really high-quality work despite extremely tight schedules!"
Jean Casey
Project Coordinator, International Rescue Committee
"The team were incredibly flexible and helpful in facilitating a relaunch of our supporter newsletter. They helped create a softer and warmer look and feel utilising both new fundraising propositions in addition to new brand identity. Their expertise and guidance were invaluable in helping to produce a really high-quality publication which has been well-received both internally and by our audience."
Elizabeth Brown
Individual Giving Manager, Barts Charity
"The team took great care at every stage of the process, ensuring our requirements were met within the timelines we had agreed, whilst remaining flexible, friendly and approachable throughout. I have no hesitation recommending them."
