“We commissioned Natalie to design and deliver an antiracist learning programme for a consortium of progressive food and farming organisations. Reaching employees of different levels of seniority, and familiarity with the racism, Natalie worked tirelessly and efficiently to ensure the programme remained faithful to our intended outcomes. I’d recommend Natalie to anyone seeking to facilitate changes in organisational approach and ethos. Her approach is able to cut through the din of day-to-day working life.”

Andre Kpodonu – Head of Activism, Feedback

“Natalie was very accommodating to the needs of our organisation and delivered a well-thought-through process with staff, which was pitched at the right level. Her expert guidance enabled us to identify racist practices and assumptions in our communications that we had previously not challenged. Natalie helped build our understanding of how to challenge ourselves, our work, and our content. We have learnt a lot about anti-racist narrative change.”

Ruthie Walters - Campaigns and Communications Officer, Results UK

“We approached Wood & Water to audit our communications materials from an anti-racist perspective. We got so much more. Natalie’s expertise exceeded our expectations. As well as providing in-depth narrative analysis, she was able to advise from a structural and cultural point of view. She approached challenging conversations with skill and ease and created a brave space for our staff to learn, leaving us inspired and armed with the information we need to meaningfully progress this work.”

Emma Fisher - Brand Manager, Fairtrade Foundation

“We worked with Wood & Water to deliver a project that engaged 14–18-year-olds in environmental justice issues, using podcasting as their storytelling tool. Natalie created a framework based on indigenous wisdom and natural elements to help the young people encounter environmental issues in new ways. Natalie's approach held the sacredness of young people in the highest regard, creating a space in which a project that had been in the pipe for a while, became possible.”
