Feedback from Healthwatch Surrey:
Steve did a fantastic job of planning, facilitating and reporting on a series of co-design workshops for Healthwatch Surrey. We were working with carers of people with mental ill health to understand what good support services would look like for them. Steve’s approach and expertise meant he kept the groups on topic whilst allowing everyone to express their thoughts, in what for participants was a very emotive subject matter. Steve produced a high-quality report at the end of the groups which captured all the findings and summarised the key themes. Steve’s work is of a very high standard, and we will certainly work with him again on future projects.
