What our clients say:

“The team at Freshwater were a pleasure to work with. They understood the brief and applied the appropriate challenge and rigor to the process. The rebrand and relaunch was a good opportunity for the senior team to ensure that the business reflects their core values. The results are demonstrated in business performance, brand recognition, web and social media presence and a much stronger pipeline. They are lovely people and good fun to work with.”

Nigel Griffiths, Commercial Director of Lexington

What our clients say:

“We had provided a brief ahead of the training as we were looking for something tailored to our needs. The course that was delivered to us by highly experienced trainers had evidently been designed with exactly this in mind. It was really engaging, interactive, and very well-tailored to our needs. The entire team who attended got a lot out of it, coming away energised and with confidence to try out different approaches.”

Healthcare Inspectorate Wales

What our clients say:

“We were really pleased with the media training session provided by Freshwater. The training delivered built on the existing experience of the two people taking part and focused on preparing them for media interviews and delivering key organisational messages in the process. The session setting and trainer provided a realistic and positive environment which helped to achieve the objectives of the day.”
