One-to-one support from active researchers and practitioners with deep REF and impact experience. Get an honest, evidence-based read on your case study before it counts, from people who do this work across the UK, Ireland, Australia, Hong Kong and beyond.
From a focused second opinion to end-to-end support through to submission, each option pairs you with an expert reviewer who knows what a high-scoring case study looks like.
Each option covers one impact case study. Reviewing several? Set the number of case studies on the option you choose and we review each one.
A 30-minute one-to-one online session with an impact expert to discuss your case study, clarify questions and receive tailored advice. Use it to review direction, test emerging impact claims, discuss evidence gaps, or plan how to strengthen the case before your next review stage.
Detailed expert feedback on your draft impact case study, including an indicative score, annotated comments and practical recommendations. Covers impact claims, reach and significance, attribution to eligible underpinning research, evidence quality and overall narrative structure.
A detailed written review combined with a 30-minute online consultation. You receive annotated comments, an indicative score and practical recommendations, followed by tailored advice to help you prioritise revisions and strengthen the case.
A detailed written review plus a 1.5-hour online author workshop and a later one-to-one follow-up session, for researchers who need structured support to work through feedback. The workshop is tailored to your draft and focuses on strengthening impact claims, evidence, attribution, narrative structure and future impact strategy.
Your reviewer is an active researcher or impact practitioner who has written, scored and supported REF impact case studies, not a generalist editor. That is the difference between feedback that polishes prose and feedback that lifts a score.
Reviewers who have prepared and assessed impact case studies through successive REF cycles, and are working to REF2029 now.
They build impact in their own research, so feedback is grounded in what actually convinces an assessment panel.
A clear view on where your claims, evidence and reach hold up, and where they need work, before it counts.
These workshops train your full team at once, from £990 per team. One fee covers your whole cohort, and we shape the day with you before it runs.
