ChangeStar have a real understanding of how to really push a campaigning message at the same time as maximising the possibilities for income generation. They produced copy for a rapid response press advert in less than 24 hours and the resulting ad was one of the best membership recruitment activities we’ve undertaken this year.

We have been really impressed with how ChangeStar have developed and designed two very different DM packs for us. The first was a legacy pack for our traditional warm supporters which produced great results and led to us hitting our yearly targets of new legators with just one mailing. The second was a new supporter magazine for our younger Face to Face donors for which ChangeStar developed a whole new magazine and feel with the aim of being a light but informative read. They achieved this excellently and initial feedback has been really positive. We look forward to working with ChangeStar in the year ahead.

Richard did a substantial body of work for us preparing a business development plan for Schumacher UK. This involved looking at all our current operations, our future objectives and preparing a strategy and budgets to get from here to there. The plan itself was produced on time and to budget which was a great achievement. We have taken on board many of Richard's recommendations and this has greatly helped to give Schumacher UK a renewed sense of purpose, self belief and vitality.

I've worked with Tim Walker over a period of ten years. During that time he has produced highly innovative direct marketing campaigns that have produced some of the best results I've seen in charity fundraising.

David Richards,
Director of Fundraising, National Autistic Society

Richard was able to transform a vision into a reality. We possessed a unique business with great potential, but the difficulty was converting that potential into reality. Richard brought the skills necessary to do that. He was extremely driven and extremely conscientious. He had the vision. He put together an extremely detailed development plan. Then he put it into action. As a result the organisation increased 20 fold in size. During that growth he put into place a whole raft of procedures that ensured that we were able to manage change in an organised rather than chaotic way. Richard was always able to represent the organisation at the highest level. And he ensured that the staff were always well cared for.

Richard possesses integrity, a rigorous intellect and a level of compassion that is rare to find a business environment.
