I have worked with Beth on several projects including Toad Hall and Flamingo Lagoon. It was a real joy working with her every time. She has a very good eye for detail and is great at listening to the needs of a client. Beth is great at what she does, I have learnt a lot from her along the way.

Beth project managed our vision for a pond dipping station at RSPB Loch Lomond, one of Scotland’s most highly designated sites. She created concept visualisations, for translation into technical drawings, bringing the project through planning & delivery. Feedback we’ve received from visitors, RSPB staff and volunteers has been excellent.
