Research, Evaluation and Consultation
Alix’s experience of the heritage sector is excellent.

She did the HLF Activity Plan for us and this was an extraordinarily thorough document. We know, because HLF told us, that they completely took our bid to pieces looking for anything that didn’t stack up properly and could find nothing!

I am happy to recommend Alix Slater and would feel very confident in working with her again on other projects.

Mary Powell

Programme Manager, Historic Lincoln Projects

I started my career as an intern at the Royal Ontario Museum undertaking visitor studies and have been involved in research, evaluation and consultation every since as a practitioner and academic.

I provide a range of services including visitor and audience research, market research, stakeholder consultation, front-end, formative and summative evaluations. This includes evaluations of National Lottery Heritage Fund Development and Delivery Phases.

I use a range of methodologies depending on the situation including online and face to face surveys, focus groups, telephone, internet mediated and face to face interviews.

Recent projects include:

  • Three sets of focus groups to test the interpretative approach at Lincoln Castle, content of a film about Magna Carta and a new pricing structure;
  • Focus groups and an online survey as part of the consultation for the new Oldham Heritage & Arts Centre;
  • Summative Evaluations of the Development Phase of The Leaves of Southwell project and Delivery Phase of Lincoln Castle Revealed.
