A core team of nine consultants is led by Directors, Jennifer Lambert, and Onyema Ibe. Between them, our team has many years’ expertise in supporting organizations and communities, and each consultant brings valuable insights from the experience of working within the sectors we support.

We have built a reputation on quality and all our staff is committed to the highest professional standards.

Associates with specialist areas of expertise work alongside the core staff, providing added value to our research, insight, and analysis.

The history behind our name.

We are often asked who are ‘Blake’ and ‘Stevenson’?  They are not, in fact, employees, (nor have they ever been), but they have had a great influence on our actions and working values!

Our name actually derives from two Edinburgh-based women, Sophia Jex-Blake and Flora Stevenson who were pioneers in health, social care, and education. They were passionate about creating a fairer society, where everyone would have the opportunity to reach their potential – ideals which underpin our work today.
