“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
“Mile 91 is always great to work with, they take charge of the planning process with internal stakeholders which helps out with workload of our marketing team. They really research what the service is, what the aims and outcomes are and can always flex to meet our needs as a client. They are diligent and organised when it comes to the shoot days and with the vast experience they have within the charity sector, they will adapt as needed.”
Sam Mashhadi
Marketing Manager
“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
“We thoroughly enjoyed our collaboration with Mile 91. Catherine and Ben emanate both professionalism and talent. They fully understood our brief and always acted on our requests but were also willing to give direction and draw on their own creativity. Their efficiency enabled us to quickly turn around a challenging project.”
Poppy Gill
Communications Officer
“With the support and expertise of Mile 91, CottonConnect’s confidence in storytelling has gone from strength to strength. Programme teams have been trained in smartphone filming making and photography which mean we are now capturing authentic stories from the field. As a result, we have a collection of films that support our impact reporting and stakeholder engagement work, plus a growing library of photography.”
Alison Ward
Chief Executive
“Thank you Mile 91 for the recent smartphone filming course – it was honestly the most useful and fun workshop I’ve ever been to. I really enjoyed putting what we learnt in the morning in to practice, and felt a huge sense of achievement showing my short video at the end of the day. We all left feeling so excited and motivated to make some great videos for Marie Curie!”
