"Nicki worked with us to strengthen the engagement of the diverse teams at Soil Association with our brand. We both shared a belief in the power of nature and Nicki used her experience and creativity to bring this to life in a series of workshops. The reaction has been excellent. Having our screens connecting us and nature just out of the door meant a truly memorable opportunity for reappraisal."
Ian Ayling, Strategy and Marketing Director, The Soil Association
