What have our clients said about us?
STRATEGIC THINKING
"Working with Craig and Elaine has been a challenge and a joy. Not only did they get what the charity is all about, but they also understood the audiences we are keen to target. It’s often difficult to step outside the day to day running of an organisation and look critically at what we do and how we do it, but the team at Move expertly guided us towards, and helped us shape, the key messages we want to share in 2023. For us, it’s one step closer to formalising our overall strategy for the coming years, and we certainly hope to work with Craig and Elaine again to enable us to achieve that."

PROGRAMME DESIGN
“Move Consulting’s work led to numerous positive outcomes and contributed to the delivery of an effective physical activity pathway with excellent health outcomes. This support included the creation of a business case to secure long-term funding and building strategic relationships with stakeholders in the health sector.
Thanks to the support provided on these priorities, we know have an effective business case that demonstrates a collaborative commissioning approach with health partners and strong evidence for sustaining the pathway. Extension funding has already been achieved, we have great relationships across health & social care and now have the tools to continue our conversations with commissioners for secure long-term funding."
Richard Claydon| Strategic Health Relationship Manager| Active Oxfordshire
WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT
“We were thrilled to work with Move Consulting on this webinar series. As experts in behaviour change and physical activity, we leant on their knowledge and expertise to source the right people for our instructors. And they did not disappoint.
Through careful curation of content and themes, over 760 instructors signed up across the series to learn more about how instructors and health systems can work together towards a healthier nation through group exercise"
Sarah Leeves |Marketing Manager | EMD UK
PROGRAMME DESIGN
"Right from the start the team at Move Consulting were engaging and fully understanding of what we wanted to achieve, even when we were very vague around what we wanted. New to the county they took the time to absorb all things Buckinghamshire and came back with a proposal that met the outcomes we required to achieve.
Throughout working with them their team took a flexible approach to meet our changing needs and wants. They are friendly, flexible, solution focused, engaging, knowledgeable, and all in all easy and great to work with!"
Sally Hone | Public Health Principal | Buckinghamshire Council
WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT
“We knew that we needed to further develop our knowledge and skills linked to understanding physical activity and health, not only to raise the confidence of our staff but also to continue to challenge perceptions and support our change in narrative relating to working in new ways to support local communities. Speaking with the team at Move Consulting it was obvious that their specialist understanding of physical activity and health, coupled with their experience of working within a governing body setting, positioned them perfectly to support us to understand the nuances in the conversation on health.”
Vicki Putson | National Development Manager | British Triathlon
WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT
“It has been a pleasure to work with Craig and Elaine from Move Consulting on our behaviour change training for the Active Londoners Pilot.
Craig and Elaine have been working with us to develop a bespoke behaviour change course for the fitness professionals who are delivering physical activity sessions as part of the pilot and the fitness mentors who are supporting the professionals throughout. They have truly listened to the needs and expectations of the pilot and have seamlessly incorporated our insights, resources, and existing learning. They are passionate, knowledgeable, and adaptable. It’s been great to work together and there’s no doubt we will be working together again soon!”
Ashleigh Ahlquist | Physical Activity Manager | Versus Arthritis
PROGRAMME DESIGN
"We were delighted to be able to work with Move Consulting on our Strength Messaging Project. Working to very tight timescales, Craig and Elaine started by asking all the questions to take our valuable insight to the next phase. Their expert knowledge of applying behaviour change concepts to real-life experience, and their enthusiastic approach, helped to engage our members in shaping recommendations to develop an intervention. The rigorous methods they took and in-depth study into behaviours was fascinating, they taught us so much! They have provided us with an excellent foundation on which to develop our Strength Messaging Project further. We would thoroughly recommend working with them.”
Sarah Curgenven | Project Manager | Chartered Society of Physiotherapy
PROGRAMME EVALUATION
"Move Consulting were an absolute pleasure to work with. They are highly skilled consultants with an extensive understanding of sport for the development and health sectors. Craig created an interactive, thought-provoking workshop to tackle some of the big questions our programme advisory group have been grappling with for some time. From start to finish, Craig worked with us to understand our needs, shape the session, building on the brief provided, and helped us to structure a challenging topic of how to embed mental health in the physical activity sector over the next five years. I look forward to working with Move Consulting again in the future.”
Hayley Jarvis | Head of Physical Activity | Mind
WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT
“We are so glad we worked with the team at Move Consulting to help us create our Coach Parker qualification and CPD offer. After a few conversations with their team, it was obvious to us that they had not only the expertise to design and develop the kind of learning pathway we wanted, but they also took the time to really listen and understand our needs. Their passion, values and vision as an organisation really helped in deciding on them as our chosen provider.”
Born Barikor | Founder and CEO | Our Parks
WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT
"One of our team recommended Move Consulting to us and from initial meetings we knew instantly that they were the right people to work with. Their depth of expertise in physical activity related behaviour change was obvious, but more importantly after initial scoping meetings what they came back to us with was exactly what we had envisaged and has been an instant hit with our target audiences."
Lorraine Nicholson | Director of Training | WRIGHT Foundation CIC
STRATEGIC THINKING
"Move Consulting’s support with stakeholder engagement and influencing is unsurpassed. This has been a critical success factor for the projects we worked on, and their project development support has been invaluable. Elaine brings a deep understanding of the physical activity, leisure and public health systems, coupled with an extensive knowledge, experience and network in exercise referral, exercise rehabilitation and community wellbeing. The team at Move are great at connecting people and creating conversations that move the hearts and minds of people to create solutions in the community health and leisure system. Move Consulting stands out because they take the time to understand the problem, guide you through developing solutions, and support you to make it happen."
