Kind Words

Make Things Happen have been a pleasure to work with from day zero. They have truly gone above and beyond for Sustrans Scotland, and we look forward to working with them in the future.

Kristen Layne, Project Manager for Sustrans

We appointed MTH in May 2021 and they have been a pleasure to work with... We have been led through the Stage 3 design and have recently signed a further contract to progress with Stage 4. We will soon be welcoming them back to Brora... like old friends.

Dr Nick Lindsay, Chairman, Clyne Heritage Society, Brora

Make Things Happen have totally transformed Samtaler's brand and made it better than anything I ever could have dreamed of... It's really elevated our offering and we are looking forward to working with you for a long time to come. 

Sarah Stone, Founder & CEO, Samtaler
