Are you communicating your work in a way that will truly drive change? That will inspire audiences to action? That will amplify your impact?
Hello!
My name is Laura Evans-Hill and I founded Nifty Fox in 2018 with a vision: to help academics tell their stories visually so audiences listen.
I trained as a social researcher and worked in outreach across 4 universities over 10 years. I learned first hand that death by powerpoint is the fastest way to disengage diverse communities, industry and policy makers. Words alone don't cut it when it comes to connecting with people to make change happen.
But when I started to draw, use visuals and tell stories about research - that's when the magic happened. Communities could see themselves in the work and wanted to help. Industry understood the findings and saw the value in collaboration. Policy makers engaged with the evidence and acted on recommendations.
All because knowledge was communicated differently. In a way that made it relevant. Engaging. Human.
And that is when Nifty Fox was born - to use visual storytelling for social good.

Our Awards
We're honoured to have been awarded Best Visual Communications Agency Yorkshire in 2023; Best Visual Communications Agency UK 2024; and UK Enterprise Excellence Award for Social Impact 2024. We couldn't have done it without the collaboration, connection and championing of our wonderful clients and the communities we work with.
Why We Do It
We want to make knowledge accessible to all. By using visuals and combining them with storytelling, we:
- translate and mobilise research beyond the academy and organisations;
- create opportunities to engage and coproduce work with diverse communities;
- facilitate measurable change.
