Ideas drive change.
Let’s bring yours to life.
Hi, I’m Eleanor, communication consultant and coach. I help organisations and individuals untangle complex ideas, shape powerful narratives and engage audiences, to change lives.
Communication is a powerful tool. It can transform relationships, shift attitudes and behaviours, and provide reassurance and support. Or it can reinforce the very divides we want to address.
Building genuine connections means working alongside the people we want to reach, to understand their concerns, perceptions, values and experiences and then find the narratives that resonate.
I act as a bridge between experts and their audiences, so their ideas can have real impact. Drawing on writing, coaching, filmmaking and research, I help shape complex issues into clear messaging, for positive change.
Why me?
Strategic From impact reports and films to service improvements and coaching, I’ll help you shape clear strategic goals, so we focus on what matters.
Insight led I’ll help you deeply understand your stakeholders – from staff and senior stakeholders to people with lived experience – to ensure your message resonates.
People focused My technical skills are only part of the story. I’m also a problem-solver, creator, coach, mentor, cheerleader, motivator – and, sometimes, hand-holder.
Trusted I have 20+ years’ experience helping thinktanks, universities, charities, NHS organisations and independent consultants, at every level, to articulate and apply their vision for healthier lives.
