Emily has been great to work with. She combines a wealth of experience in the mental health sector and razor-sharp policy insight with a thoughtful and personable style. She’s always been entirely committed to delivering high-quality work, whilst adapting as a project and timelines develop. I’d definitely recommend her.

Neil Balmer, Head of Communications, MQ Research

Emily is a highly intelligent and experienced policy specialist. I have worked closely with her on many occasions and I have seen that she is passionate about her work and has deep knowledge of many matters around mental health and public health. She is also a great writer and networker who thinks strategically.

Dr Antonis Kousoulis, Director for England and Wales, Mental Health Foundation

Emily is great to work with. She is passionate about social justice, politically astute and strategic in her approach to policy and influence work. We worked collaboratively on an election manifesto and her deep knowledge of the issues was invaluable. She’s a great communicator and a pleasure to work with.

Ewan Hilton, CEO, Platfform

I’ve worked with Emily in several roles for at least ten years, and it’s always been a pleasure to do so.  She’s resourceful, reliable, and responsive to the needs and objectives of the organisation she’s working for, and the work she’s delivering. Her incisive policy analysis is combined with a strong commitment to improving mental health and to tackling injustice and inequality.  She has invaluable knowledge of the policy and political space in Wales, which informed her drafting of a high-quality policy strategy for our work in Wales, and a manifesto for the Senedd Election in 2021.  Emily is an attentive listener – a crucial skill for effective influencing - and a thoughtful, supportive manager.

Lucy Thorpe, Head of Policy, Mental Health Foundation
