Testimonials

"An excellent project run by students from the University of York. The insights and advice provided were of a highly professional standard."

"YCC worked diligently to produce a very useful report for the charity that will, when the current health emergency situation abates, be used to support our work into the future. I was impressed with their level of contact and with the professionalism with which the report was both presented and completed."

"Great experience, very committed and well organised team"

"York Community Consulting has been brilliant! We have worked with them twice now, and throughout both research projects they have shown great quality and professionalism. All work has been thorough, well-presented and detailed. Each and every member shows such skill, talent and ambition, and we are sure will have excellent future careers."
The Process
We run our projects during the University of York's academic term dates (terms 1, 2 and 3). Each of our projects lasts one academic term. During this time we will have regular team, external mentor and client meetings. Below is a guide timeline.
