Case studies & impact stories

Research institutes, universities, non-profits.

Every organisation has people behind the work. The person a program helped, the researcher who ran the study, the donor who kept something going.

My job is to speak to those people and build the case study or impact story around them.

If you’ve got a program, project, or research that needs a human story attached to it, get in touch.

Some of the work in this space has included:

  • Carer and family interviews turned into paediatric palliative care features

  • Patient stories about how research breakthroughs have helped them

  • Donor and supporter stories

  • Research impact stories, built from interviews with the researchers behind the work


“Responsible for our People of Palliative Care series, Sarah has supplied engaging and impactful content on a regular basis. Her work elevates our key messages, builds our reputation and standing, and grows a community around our advocacy.

Sarah’s skill allows the reader to process complex emotions and ideas in an accessible and meaningful way that leads to change at an individual and community level.

Often the people Sarah engages with on our behalf are fragile and bereaved. Her approach is empathetic and human centred, and I believe often plays a part in that person’s ongoing healing – such is the power of her work and the way she goes about it.”
