Client feedback

Sarah Mills, Transformation and Engagement, Mid and South Essex ICS

“Working with the superb team at Mace & Menter has been an absolute joy. They delivered a superb alpha phase of our elective care educational project that has helped us devise strategies around the long-term future of educational video content in the NHS. The team is flexible, reliable and diligent and we appreciated the openness of their approach.”

Digital Innovation Manager, NHS Transformation Directorate

“We needed help understanding ways to help young people access mental health services and improve experiences. The rigorous approach identified where to invest for impact and the support finder is simple and effective. I’d recommend Mace & Menter because their pace of work, outputs and approach to collaboration is excellent with good team working. They are flexible, open and encourage feedback.“

Helen Ford, Programme Director - NHS Gloucestershire ICB

“Our ICS is delighted with the outcome of this project and the four digital products, once developed, will make a significant and sustainable contribution in supporting our young people with social communication challenges and their families and in our efforts to move the focus from diagnosis to a needs led approach.”
