“We worked with Mile 91 to produce films for Refugee Week. They bring a wonderful balance of efficiency and professionalism, with warmth and sensitivity to their work. Their communication from start to finish was excellent as they walked us, and our church communities, through the film making process. We are delighted with the resulting films.”
Pattie Gercke
Compassionate Communities Development Worker: Refugee & Homeless
“It feels very special working with Mile 91. From the outset, it felt like an extension of the team. I haven’t worked with another agency who feel this engaged, warm and personable. I don’t think anyone matches their expertise or their culture of storytelling. We’ve shifted into a space at Mind where storytelling is front and centre of what we do – and engagement with our content, donations and campaign sign-ups have increased because of it. Mile 91 have been instrumental in this.”
Phil Marley
Voices Manager
“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
“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
“I've commissioned Catherine and Ben to create purpose-driven films on three separate occasions and have enormous trust that they 'just get it'. With a well-scoped brief, they've worked as an extension to my team to create high quality films that tick all the boxes. Their expertise in storytelling is second to none and they're both a pleasure to work with. All credit to them - they've smashed it every time!”
Jess Dillon
Head of Communications and Marketing
“We’ve worked with Ben for a few years now and he really is the best. He makes everything look easy, no matter what we throw at him or how packed the schedule is. Whether he’s taking photos of patients, staff members or volunteers, he puts everyone at ease and never makes you feel rushed, he’s a true professional. Our website and communications wouldn’t look half as good if we didn’t have Ben’s photos.”
