Sara McGrail

I am currently contracted by organisations to provide ongoing support and advice about the latest developments in substance use policy and implementation and to support managers and commissioners to deal with day to day problems and issues. Sometimes I've been asked to undertake additional supervision with staff over fixed periods of time to deal with specific problems. Other work I've done is ongoing support for a newly formed local partnership over their first 6 meetings. Because this work is usually contracted over longer periods of time ( - a half or one day a month over 6 - 12 months) I charge less per day for the work. I'm also available for a telephone consultation whenever you need it (within reason). Obviously that service is not available during Eastenders or when Liverpool are playing.

The advantage of this type of contracting is that it gives you flexible bespoke expertise that you can use for a range of activities and it means that you pay less for it than having even a part time member of staff.

If you're interested in talking about working with me on an ongoing basis in this way, please get in touch.

What people say:

"Sara has been invaluable; there are many people who have ideas on establishing a business, fewer actually take the step, and even less are successful. Sara with her knowledge, skills, and insight has guided us through the stages needed to establish a successful enterprise, and with on going support has enabled us to remain focussed and clear about our strategic direction"
