Meet our lead moderator

Our Lead Moderator, Huw, has been delivering moderation for over 20 years. Huw works alongside a wider network of moderators, and they are all adept at conducting moderation on your behalf, or working in collaboration with your own moderators where additional resource is needed. Tailoring their approach to your research objectives and the needs of respondents ensures an optimal experience every time.

Meet our lead moderator

Our areas of expertise...

  1. 1:1 Interviews

    Individual interviews empower our moderators to gather unique and comprehensive insights from each respondent. Whether conducted in-person or remotely, our skilled moderator team excels at guiding respondents, ensuring you get the insights you need.
  2. Group Discussions

    Focus groups enable participants to combine their experience and perspectives, fostering collaborative exploration of key topics. Our moderators facilitate inclusive discussions, ensuring everyone’s opinion is valued and heard.
  3. Lived Experience

    Capturing authentic real-life insights or collecting continuous feedback over time takes the richness of your findings to the next level. Whether observing individuals in their own environment or capturing in-the-moment feedback via apps or other platforms, lived experience research offers unique insights into how people navigate, experience, and interact with various aspects of their medical condition.

Don't just take our word for it...
