“I have worked with John on intervention materials for over a decade now, this has been a productive relationship for pragmatic reasons – he is reliable, manages time well and produces high quality work to specification – but also for artistic reasons - he has a great skill set in the area of designing materials intended for lay professionals ensuring materials are written in simple accessible English. John has over the years shown great understanding and interest in the content of our intervention work which is focused on responsive and nurturing care, the parent-child relationships and family support. He maintains good relationships with illustrators, artists and printing providers and this network is a great help in completing project on deadlines and within budget.”

He is professional, skilled and experienced in the production of various publications, from easy-to-read educational media, to annual reports and beautiful reference books.

Highly recommended!”
