“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
“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.”
Rachel Lesbirel
Digital Marketing and Communications 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
“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.”
Rachel Crews
Communications 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
“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.”
