“I have hugely benefitted from being coached by Bryony; in fact, I’ve recently started a brilliant new job, and I owe a huge part of that to her. She’s been incredibly supportive, while asking me questions that have challenged me and made me reflect and focus on what is right for me. This has been game-changing as she’s really listened and helped me to focus on what I value. I’ve found Bryony to be a great coach. I felt that we quickly built trust, and I felt listened to. She effectively gets to the heart of an issue through asking relevant questions, and I felt listened to. Thanks to Bryony, I’ve felt supported and have confidence in my decisions, which have resulted in really positive change.”
Helen, Coachee
“Throughout our time working together, I have greatly appreciated Bryony’s professionalism, creativity, and the marketing expertise she brings to every project. She consistently delivers high‑quality and accurate work, complemented by strong strategic insight. I have particularly valued her creative strengths in marketing and communications, which shine through in her ability to craft compelling, audience‑focused content. Her leadership of the ‘End Domestic Abuse: Know, See, Speak Out’ campaign demonstrates her capacity for clear strategic thinking, impactful storytelling, and effective execution, which has significantly enhanced the visibility and reach of this important initiative, helping more people to access the support they need.”
Jenny Hanna, Senior Project Officer for Domestic Abuse Kent County Council

Bryony has worked with Visit Thanet on several projects in the past. We greatly value her input and consider her a valuable extension to our team. Most recently Bryony delivered a series of workshops to help us review our audiences and content delivery and plan a strategy for taking this forward, which works to the strengths of team members and will deliver great ROI. Bryony’s marketing skills and her infectious enthusiasm to help deliver great content and results have left the team with an achievable plan and renewed vigour.
Julie Edwards, Visit Thanet
I want to say a BIG thank you for everything you’ve done for and given to me since we first started this process. You’ve allowed me to build my confidence and clear some of the nagging anxiety that was looming over me. I now have a more structured routine and a clearer mind, and I’ve learned how to build more defined professional boundaries. You are excellent,
Margo, FemMentored mentee
Bryony has worked with Blue Sail on several projects over the last couple of years and is a trusted and incredibly valuable associate of ours. Not only is she a great thinker with an ability to generate innovative ideas, she also has a real gift for bringing those ideas to life, creating engaging and impactful content that appeals to target markets. And, she’s a team player, a joy to work with, and always delivers on time.
Laura Wakelin, Director, Blue Sail
Bryony brought fresh ideas to East Kent Mencap’s marketing across all channels. She really listened to everyone’s views and opinions and came up with thoughtful and impactful solutions to present our charity brand clearly and confidently. Bryony has a positive can-do approach which makes working with her very enjoyable. I recommend her to any organisation that needs some help with their marketing.
Jason Gerlack, CEO, East Kent Mencap
I have worked with Bryony at Pie Factory Music since October 2020. Bryony helped us to design and deliver a successful Crowdfunding campaign during one of our most challenging years. She was a delight to work with, both in her manner with all members of our team and also her expertise and experience. She was reliable, supportive and ultimately helped us to raise funds at a vital time. Bryony tailored her approach around our strengths as an organisation and offered smart, achievable solutions in areas where we are less experienced. I was also extremely impressed with Bryony’s commitment to developing young people and empowering them to have a stake in our comms. As the leader of a charity during COVID-19, I personally found Bryony’s support to be a lifeline.
Steph Dickinson, Managing Director Pie Factory Music
Bryony really understands what we are trying to achieve as a business as well as charity. She has helped us to understand the make-up of our audiences and raise our profile in a more targeted way. Since Covid-19, I would call Bryony our 5th emergency service, enabling us to reach our customers, clients, local contacts and communities quickly, responding in a calm and focussed way. She is a highly skilled marketer, understands all aspects of communications – that kind of one-stop-shop and talented copywriting skills at such a professional level is very hard to come by. Bryony is kind, smart and collaborative, bringing ideas to us all the time, and thinking of new ways of working to help us increase our brand awareness and reach new audiences. We highly recommend her.
Clare Millett, Chief Executive Westgate Hall Community Trust
“I just can’t recommend Bryony enough for your comms needs. She is brilliant to work with, flexible, upbeat, dynamic and knows how to work around the day-to-day pressures small to medium-sized charities have. She does incredible work for Oasis Domestic Abuse Service and my other passion www.social-led.org.uk. It is a very reasonable and well worth the investment.”
