Client feedback

We appointed Ruthie Boys to deliver a schools resource package for use on the canal in Lancaster. Ruthie has delivered the work to an extremely high standard, within budget and within the stipulated timescale. I found it easy to work with Ruthie, as she communicated the progress on the work in a timely, clear manner. Ruthie had a clear understanding of the brief from the outset and came to us with some excellent initial designs. These designs were developed and resulted in a story sack and curiosity box that will be of great use in the education sessions we put on. In summary we would have no hesitattion in appointing Ruthie to work on a Canal and River Trust project again in the future.
