After we've worked on their projects:
'After attending a ‘Trails that Kick Ass’ training course, I was motivated to encourage staff at Raystede to look at our visitor’s services. Kate offered professional mentoring and support through-out the process; helping me plan two workshops and providing lots of resource ideas to inspire and instigate change. The mentoring service has adapted well to our short timescale.' Lucy at Raystede
'It was a unanimous decision to involve you in the project and I’m so relieved that we’ll have your expertise and experience to call upon. And I’m really looking forward to working with you again!'. Jacky Ferneyhough, freelance writer
'Kate Measures' expertise and value to the cultural and heritage environments is unique. She has the skill to enthusiastically tease out creativity and galvanise talent from anyone from five to eighty five years old, always delivering more than you could have dreamt possible.' Vicky Mitchell, Renaissance Yorkshire
‘I first met Kate when I went out to tender with a piece of evaluation work. Her written application and CV were strong but it was when I telephoned to talk to her that I knew she was the best candidate for the job. She listened to exactly what I needed and tailored a programme to match and was very flexible in her approach. She was always professional and always cheerful. I was absolutely reassured that she would deliver what I was after, and that she would do it well. I have since employed her for much bigger projects, and continue to be impressed by her work and her enthusiasm (and her loud laugh!).’
Polly Schomberg, Visitor Experience and Volunteering Officer,The National Trust, East Midlands regional office
'Kate is one of the most energetic consultants we have ever worked with. She has brought dynamism and focus to a wide range of learning initiatives that we are involved with, particularly in driving work with young people and navigating some highly complex issues.'
Emma Anderson, Renaissance North West Manager
‘Kate Measures is extremely organised, efficient and reliable. She was engaged to organise a national interpretation training programme for Property Managers across the National Trust. The project was delivered to very high standards with a first class evaluation report that she produced. She is extremely easy to work with while also being very professional in her approach.’
Adrian Tissier, The National Trust.
'Kate worked with both WWT and Preston North End on a joint education initiative project. Kate was asked to evaluate the success of the project and all its outcomes. Kate was both helpful and approachable and her communication throughout the project was excellent. Kate had a very professional approach and I would not hesitate in recommending her for future consultation.' Andy Wooldridge, Wildfowl and Wetland Trust Martin Mere Wetland Centre
‘Kate brought great enthusiasm to the subject of Ancient Trees and went on to offer a professional service for rolling out Key Stage 3 training to teachers, group leaders and learning officers on behalf of the Woodland Trust and the Ancient Tree Hunt.
She was a great ambassador for the project and I wouldn’t hesitate using her again for this type of role’.
Nikki Williams – Project Manager - Ancient Tree Hunt
‘Kate was a pleasure to work with and scored excellent feedback for the teacher training sessions she ran – I have since recommended her work to other colleagues at the Woodland Trust.’
Kate Lewthwaite, The Woodland Trust
‘Kate, thanks for all your excellent work producing our regional Sustainable Schools Directory-also much appreciate your meticulous planning and logistical skills organising the set up of our partners stands at the Yorkshire & Humber Sustainable Schools Fair’

She led a quite intense but very useful brainstorming session the outcome of which is a valuable Garden Learning Plan.’
