A little can sometimes go a long way. This interesting partnership project between Sutton House (National Trust) and St Augustine's Tower (Hackney Historic Buildings Trust) in Hackney had a small budget - but we were keen to have a return visit to Sutton House, a National Trust property Verity Walker and associate Eleanor Bird remember well from their time with NT in the 1990s.
One of our techniques on this one was to use children's artwork as feedback, avoiding the necessity to find the right words (difficult in a multi-lingual, multi culture area).
Our client kindly commented:
"What a lot of work. I can’t thank you enough for producing such an in-depth report with such a small budget..."
We hope it'll pave the way for more multi-cultural cross-site partnership working in Hackney.
