Our Reviews

See what others say about us!

I worked with Toseef and employed him as our gang advisor whilst producing BBC CASUALTY. He was such a valuable addition to the team. Going out of his way to offer new and insightful contributions. Always professional but exceptionally approachable and friendly to all the crew, cast and working staff. My Director was particularly impressed with the additional story beats that Toseef offered towards the storytelling making it as authentic and realistic as possible. His experience offered us something we could not have known without his knowledge. I would highly recommend working with Toseef to any company looking for a remarkable, knowledgeable and easy to work with associate who has great communication and adaptability skills within new working environments. He is a resourceful and valuable individual and his work within the prison community to reform and elevate ex prisoners and enable the government to understand the realities of how the community works is vital.

Toseef's approach to sharing his lived experience is one which is enshrined in honesty and transparency. He brings no bravado to his work, simply a truly reflective and open style. One of his key strengths is his ability to adapt his delivery and presentation style to his audience , particularly with students where engagement can be challenging, he is able to captivate and educate through his relaxed candid manner John Mallalieu – CEO Leeds United Foundation

Every community needs a Toseef Khan who can provide the leadership necessary to improve the life chances of young and vulnerable people. With his passion and commitment, he makes sense of the dangers young people face by reflecting on his lived experience and using his learnt knowledge to empower improved outcomes for everyone.

Wizer CIC and its staff knowledge, insight and dedication has been invaluable in adopting new approaches to support individuals at risk of exploitation and criminality. They have successfully worked in partnership with local Pupil Referral Units to provide additional support for pupils and teachers based on their lived experience; reducing the threat of harm pupils are exposed to from Organised Crime Groups. Wizer CIC have been instrumental in a ‘peer led’ approach with both Police and Probation services to support individuals who are entering the criminal justice system and those leaving prison to address their criminogenic needs and assist in finding employment. Their expertise and knowledge coupled with commitment and passion are key reasons I hope Wizer CIC continues to go from strength to strength. Steven Peck – Home Office SOC CC
