“Mile 91 were exceptionally supportive and accommodating. Despite the complexity of our project, they made the process appear effortless. They produced authentic and powerful films, written stories, and pictures of people affected by Multiple Sclerosis that communicate complex healthcare challenges in a clear and engaging way. There was a huge range of images too!”
Abdelfatah Ibrahim
Head of Communications, Campaigns and Advocacy
“Mile 91 have done a fantastic job of filming and piecing together another cover video for our website, making the most of the summer season. Ben's patience and great eye for detail were appreciated during his time with us at the Pear Tree Inn. As well as our new storytelling website video, Mile 91 have also captured a set of shots, showcasing our 17th century Inn.”
Jackie Cosens
Owner
“I am so pleased we chose Mile 91. Planning before the shoot was really helpful – exploring our objectives for the day, discussing our location and how the day should run to ensure we got the most from the shoot. Ben was excellent. He was brilliant at making people feel at ease. We didn’t feel rushed and yet managed to get a huge range of images. Our photos are natural, warm and really reflect our work.”
Jenn Hall
Head of Fundraising
“Mile 91 are a highly professional team and great fun to work with! They brought energy, fresh perspectives, tight editing and a quick turn-around to the project and UKRI was delighted with the results. Their experience and knowledge of international development means they bring expertise and sensitivity to projects which really enhanced the final outcome.”
Tracey Jewitt
International Development Communications Lead
“Catherine was an uplifting and collaborative person to work with from the outset. As well as bringing her storytelling mastery to the conversation, she really listened to our specific organisational need and helped me to design an internal series of training courses that built capability and confidence in our frontline team.”
Chloe Smee
Senior Programme Manager
“As well as meeting the key requirements of our brief, delivering a detailed story audit and helping us to identify content gaps, Catherine and Sarah provided a wealth of thoughtful analysis to help us reflect on our approach to storytelling. As a result of the project, we have data, insights and recommendations that we refer to regularly, and these are continuing to shape our approach.”
