EVENT MANAGEMENT / PROJECT SUPPORT

Rachel coordinated a series of workshops and major stakeholder meetings as part of CAG Consultant’s climate change adaptation work for Liverpool City Council. This involved managing the invitations and responses process, and coordinating support for participants with special needs. Her involvement was crucial in ensuring good attendance at these events. She also provided logistical support on the day for the larger events , ranging from registration, note-taking and small group facilitation. Rachel is a very safe pair of hands. She is highly organised and takes a pro-active and intelligent approach to any assignments she is commissioned to undertake.

In July 2008, Oadby and Wigston Borough Council appointed CAG Consultants in association with Land Use Consultants, Diverse Ethics and Organising Solutions to undertake and prepare a Faith Community Profile and Places of Worship Needs Assessment. The aims of this work were to provide a comprehensive profile of the Borough’s Faith Communities and provide a needs assessment in relation to places of worship and associated facilities. Rachel Crozier from Organising Solutions undertook a range of expert interviews with stakeholders and helped to manage a complex interview programme. Rachel's work was a valuable contribution to the study, the results of which have informed planning policy formulation, including the preparation of Town Centre Masterplans for Oadby and Wigston.

Thank you very much for the efficient and helpful way in which you organised the Social Inclusion Partnership conference. It was a great help to me that you managed to strike an excellent balance between getting on with the work whilst keeping me informed of the major issues and seeking further guidance only where necessary. It is also to your credit that you secured such an impressive range of national speakers.

I regularly use Organising Solutions for conducting research (telephone interviews, web-based research etc), organising events and facilitating consultation exercises. Rachel's experience and eye for detail mean I can always be confident that she'll deliver exceptional work. She's a pleasure to work with too!

As a member of the CAG Consultants team who were managing the consultation element of the North London Waste Plan, Rachel helped to organise consultation events, additional meetings with hard-to-reach groups and local residents, a Sustainability Appraisal Panel and set up information exhibitions in shopping precincts in the seven London boroughs. Given a brief on what was needed, Rachel got on with the organisation, liaising with all the key participants and ensuring that everything was in place for the CAG facilitators, reporting back on progress and raising any unforeseen issues for resolution. Arriving in good time for the event, she got everything set up and key people primed, providing a warm welcome to attendees at events. You know your event has a head start in terms of a successful outcome if Rachel has been involved in organising it.
