Testimonials

We like to think our customers value the quality of our work, our professionalism and our enthusiasm but don't just take our word for it...

sportscotland

We carried out a comprehensive review of over 50 sports building projects to establish what worked, where there was scope for improvement and how sportscotland advice contributed to the success of the project. Our report included a number of recommendations aimed at improving the 'how' and 'what' facilities advice sportscotland should provide in future.

"From expression of interest stage to the completion of the report, the Sport and Leisure Consultancy have provided a professional and responsive service. Deadlines have been met throughout the project and their experience and knowledge of the area of study has resulted in a well researched and presented report. The Facilities Development team would be happy to recommend their work to others."

Museums Galleries Scotland

We developed a national quality improvement framework and self-evaluation guidance to help museums and galleries assess the quality of their service and identify how they could get better.

"The Sport and Leisure Consultancy really helped us move this project on. They worked to our brief exactly which meant they garnered a high degree of trust from ourselves which not all consultants do. I appreciated their pragmatic approach and attention to detail – I would highly recommend them."

City of Edinburgh Council

We carried out an evaluation of the 'Get Up and Go' project – a programme of social and physical activity aimed at over 50's throughout the city. The study reviewed the campaign reach, take up, value for money and scope for improvement.

"The Consultancy fully met all of the objectives of the project and provided additional information which was relevant to the review. Tim was extremely thorough and professional in his approach, yet he maintained a degree of informality which was of genuine benefit to the project as it promoted a high level of mutual discussion and exchange of information."

Midlothian Council

We developed a sport, physical activity and PE strategy. This holistic approach required extensive partner, community and practitioner consultation. The end result was a comprehensive call to action aimed at increasing participation and performance.

"The Sport and Leisure Consultancy provided us with excellent support and guidance tailored to fit our needs. The energy and enthusiasm was also refreshing."

South Ayrshire Council

We carried out a sport and leisure review to identify the best strategic approach to managing facilities and improving services. The project involved a management options review, performance review and detailed business planning for different scenarios. The study recommended a way forward to help ensure the future financial sustainability of indoor and outdoor facilities.

"We would recommend the Sport and Leisure Consultancy to others because of the professional way in which they embraced the requirements of the brief and the high quality of advice and guidance given throughout the engagement."

Inverurie Sports Development Project

Working with a team of architects and planners we completed a feasibility study which looked at the scope to add a community football stadium and other indoor facilities to an existing sport and leisure centre. We provided needs assessment, business planning and corporate governance advice and support.

"The information provided in the report was ideal for the purpose of moving the project forward. What we liked was how the consultancy was able to gather relevant local and national information to support the project. We would recommend The Sport and Leisure Consultancy to others – they know their subject!"

Loanhead and Bonnyrigg Leisure Centres

We carried out RealityCheck^® mystery visits to provide an assessment of service levels through the customers eyes

"Hiring mystery visitors is normally prohibitively expensive; however, RealityCheck^® was affordable and represented good value for money. We liked the fact it was easy to set up, was industry specific, discrete and the turn- around time very quick - I am very happy to recommend RealityCheck^® to others as it has given me and the team very useful information to help improve our service."
