CLIENT REVIEW

I have been working with James since 2017 on the rebranding and relaunch of the RYA's OnBoard programme. In that time we have completely redesigned the look and feel of the OnBoard brand, bringing it up to date for a new audience. We have produced resources for schools and parents as well as producing digital resources for our various platforms. Our most popular and influential resource has been the OnBoard session cards used by Instructors and Coaches all over the country. These are bright, eye catching and easy to read. More recently I have worked with James on the RYA OnBoard 2019 Impact Report which was an extremely important document produced after a years worth of research into the project. Working with James has been fantastic, and I rely heavily on him for creative design that fits with our brand image.
