We really appreciated SMG's hard work, understanding and flexibility throughout this project. From their insight gathering they have given us very useful findings and recommendations to take forward to inform our local strategy.

As a commissioner, I have worked with SMG on a number of projects. I value the obvious high quality research, knowledge and experience within the team. The team are articulate, engaging and willing to ‘think outside the box’. I have been impressed by the breadth of reach and depth of information they can achieve and the high quality of their work and reports. No subject has been of difficulty and the ability to flex when needed by the commissioning organisation has been appreciated. They are a great bunch to work with!

SMG provided an invaluable training programme to Active Travel officers across Scotland’s 32 local authorities. It has helped many of them adopt a much more customer oriented and behaviour change focus on planning and delivering our funded projects. The training continues to realise impact, including new staff not exposed to the initial training. It’s also helped improve our own team’s understanding of social marketing and behaviour change.

SMG became ‘one of the team’ in the delivery of this project, integrating with colleagues from across the council and working flexibly by adapting to our changing needs over the course of the contract. Thank you for all your hard work which was over and above original expectations.
