Here to make
insight easier
Hi, I’m Kathy, Director of
Seymour Research
I set up Seymour Research because I love helping organisations understand people’s experiences and make positive change. Research can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t need to. My team and I bring clarity, warmth and rigour to every project. We turn evidence into insight you can actually use. We work across the public, private and third sectors, helping our clients understand what’s working, what isn’t, and what to do next.
