Sprints

Good work deserves good language. The Sprints exist to close that gap. Clear messaging. Compelling evidence. Fixed price. Delivered in weeks.

01 — Strategy

Many small creative organisations struggle not because their work lacks value but because they haven't yet found the language to communicate it with confidence. Our focused consultancy sprint that gives your team a shared story, a clear strategy, and the tools to use both.

What you get

  • A clear 1–3 year strategic framework covering your audiences, objectives, channels, tone of voice, and how communications connects to your wider mission.

  • Your core narrative and headline proposition, supported by key pillars and proof points, with tailored variants for your most important audiences.

  • Practical tools your team can pick up and use immediately — not reports that sit on a shelf.

02 — Impact Stories

A strong message house tells the world who you are. Impact stories give you the evidence to back it up. Five impact case studies, each anchored to your outcomes framework or strategic mission, and written to work hard across funding applications, partner communications, and public-facing channels.

What you get

  • Each 400–600 words, written in a consistent format designed to be read standalone or as a set.

  • Each case study maps to your theory of change, evaluation outcomes, or strategic objectives — making impact legible to funders and partners.

  • A case study brief and writing template your team can use independently to commission or write future case studies.

The Process

  • A free 45-minute conversation to understand your context and whether the sprint is the right fit. For the Impact Story Sprint, we'll also talk through your existing evidence and outcomes framework at this stage so we can start mapping before the work begins.

  • For the Strategy Sprint, a focused half-day workshop with your team — auditing your current communications, mapping your audiences, and building shared language. For the Impact Story Sprint, a research phase: either reviewing materials you supply or conducting up to five remote interviews, depending on your tier.

  • We bring everything together into your final documents — Communications Strategy and Message House, or five impact stories mapped to your outcomes framework — with a walkthrough session and one round of amends included.

Why Culture Change Works

We bring a culture change lens to communications — which means we understand that how an organisation speaks is inseparable from who it is. Our work helps teams find clarity, not just copy, and tells impact stories that do more than describe what happened.

With deep roots in the cultural sector — spanning theatre, higher education, public engagement and creative leadership — we understand the pressures small organisations face, and what it takes to communicate with confidence when resource is tight and stakes are high.
