I’d like to thank you all for your work on this.
James Parry, UK Research Integrity Office
always possible is a binding agent that works outside of silos and spreads best practice, useful info and data as it emerges.
Martin Ellis, RSE Group
Thank you for the contribution always possible made and the insights they gave us. It was pitched exactly right and gave a fresh injection of thinking at a time when we were in danger of getting too inward looking.
Martin Harris, Go Ahead Group
I was really impressed at the amount of thought, energy and time always possible put into working with us – we felt like much more than a work project, and they really encouraged us to think deeply about the way we approached evaluation and measured the impact of our work.
Ella Burns, Little Green Pig
Until I talked to always possible, I felt trapped in a dead end, losing momentum fast. They helped transform my perceptions, lifting me out of a ‘what should I be doing..?’ rut and showed me ‘what could I be doing…?’
Oli Blackwell, Meaningful

The always possible team is extremely well-networked and able to facilitate connections at both wide and narrow scopes.

They rapidly adjusted and accommodated the cancellation of physical events due to necessary social distancing measures and provided flexible informed expert advice about online options.
