“Cath has supported Trident in this last year with its work around tenancy sustainment. Cath is personable and attentive but at the same time challenging and thought provoking. As such, in working with Cath you will not only receive a good end result but one that squeezes value for money from the commission. I would have no hesitation in recommending Cath to others.
– Tony Clark, Director of Housing, Trident Social Investment Group
