Ben coordinated our “We are WUTH” recruitment campaign at short notice,
coordinating on-ward photography, graphic design, and the scheduling of paid and
organic social media content.
This was a new approach for the organisation, and we were very happy with the results.
I would happily work with Ben again on a similar project.

28. Ben provided invaluable expertise and hand-on support to Cheshire and Merseyside Cancer
Alliance during an exceptionally busy time and we were really impressed with him from the word
go.
He brought strategic thinking, boundless energy and a huge amount of common sense, along
with the ability to develop extremely strong working relationships both internally and externally.
Ben developed a new communications strategy and website for the cancer alliance, along with a
wealth of great content including videos and patient case studies. His role also involved close
working with NHS England, regionally and nationally.
