What Retail Doctor Group has done has been fantastic. We've breathed fresh life and fresh vitality into the business. My key recommendation would be to seek advice from the experts and together come up with a plan, particularly in a not-for-profit where you're not going to have all that skill in-house in your team. That's what we did.”
