"Cazz showed exceptional commitment throughout the 3 years within her role, working with stakeholders from across the organisation and beyond to fundamentally change British Cycling’s IT & Digital offerings. Her work on the digital strategy was externally validated and has been cited as best practice to other National Governing Bodies."
Rod Findley, British Cycling
"Cazz has been instrumental in our process of procuring a new CRM system. From working with us to assess our needs and map out a Partner Brief, booking calls with potential suppliers, meeting suppliers, choosing a supplier and now supporting the build process, I am absolutely confident we wouldn’t have had the same success without Cazz’s wisdom and expertise."
Julia Cushion, Hope for the Future
"We worked with Cazz to deliver Digital Strategy training. She was very flexible and listened to our needs to create a training session tailored to local organisations. Cazz really cares about helping the small charities that RCVS serve and put this at the forefront of the session delivery. Cazz's session was very well received with really positive feedback from the groups in attendance."
Rebecca Daybell, Richmond CVS
"From the initial workshopping phase, where we were encouraged to identify goals and responsibilities in line with our business strategy, to the latter stages of migrating complex data and onboarding our diverse team of staff, our experience with Cazz and Chloe has ensured an accurate and efficient transition to a new CRM system. We really appreciated the resources shared with us, and the ongoing support which brought clarity and kept us ambitious about what we could achieve. They helped us to configure a new CRM system which will suit our needs for the long term."
Jane Faram, Spike Island Artspace

Andy Lovatt, Digital Advantage
"It was clear from the start that Cazz was the person we needed to provide expert advice and guidance on our information governance needs. Great experience, lots of knowledge to get the best out of organisations like ours. Far from being an ordeal, she enabled a process that is both effective and cathartic. Knowing that we can now move forward with the right policies, practices and procedures helps us deliver our services more effectively."

Fay Selvan, Big Life group
"As a growing organisation that was trying to develop better data governance and information security policies, Cazz was able to assess the information working environment and understand and chart the course of action we needed to take.
​
This has enabled us to be a more secure and confident in the way we collect, process and store information. Importantly her approach was thorough, pragmatic and supportive - which is essential when working with small organisations with competing resource demands."

Julian Tait, Open Data Manchester
"I've had the enormous pleasure of working with Cazz since she joined Zoe Amar Digital as one of our consultants. Her work on tech and data projects supporting our clients has been excellent - always thorough, constructively challenging, and encouraging charities to do what they do even better. She is great at thinking strategically and can talk to leaders in their own language, as well as supporting operational staff with their tech challenges. In short, she is a versatile leader and strategist who I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. She is also a very kind and thoughtful colleague who lives her values in and outside of work."

Co-founder, Dot Project
"Cazz identified all of our IT needs (not just the ones we knew we had!), described them coherently and helped us find a lovely IT support firm that we're looking forward to working with."
Dick Millard, The Recovery Tree
"Cazz has provided a package of information security and GDPR support to our team that has balanced expertise with understanding of our charity needs and culture. She has been very skilled at putting staff at ease throughout her work"
Adrian Ball, Manchester Settlement
"The support we received from Cazz was second to none - a complete lifeline to support a small organisation who has limited knowledge of procuring a new CRM system. Cazz spent a considerable amount of time getting to know us, what our needs were and then researched the vast marketplace to source relevant CRM systems for our needs. She was able to narrow down and match CRM systems we relevant for our charities needs. The support didn't stop there, Cazz walked us through the shortlisting process with the companies so that we were able to see their demos and Cazz provided us with questions that we could ask each company to ensure that they understood our needs. After making our decision, Cazz continued to contact us, helping with the migration process and being a conduit, so that the final transition was smooth for both parties. As a small charity, it would of been impossible to have navigated this process without her valuable experience and support. We are truly appreciative to her."
