Copywriting
Professionally speaking, I’m a Somerset (UK) based freelance copywriter and published author, with expertise across a wide range of sectors, products and media, including charity, commercial, environmental and digital.
Since 2001 I’ve been writing conceptual marketing materials of all kinds, including websites, brochures, fundraising and sales packs, press ads and inserts, even occasional TV and radio scripts.
For this work, I’ve won DMA Gold with one of my favourite agencies. And a few years ago, one of my charity fundraising packs was highlighted in the DMA’s Book of 26 Letters to Educate and Inspire.
I’m a fast, effective web copy writer and blogger. I’m also an experienced editor, on- and offline, with responsibility for producing the prestigious Flyfishers’ Journal twice a year since 2013.
And if you’ve just written a company report that needs careful proof-reading… I’m very good at that too.
To be totally transparent, I’m currently spending most of my time working on comms and river restoration for the Wild Trout Trust at the moment. But if there’s a really special project that you’d like me to help with, let’s talk.

Age Concern, Asthma UK, Blue Cross, Breakthrough Breast Cancer, Brooke Hospital for Animals, Cancer Research UK, Christie’s, Diabetes UK, Emmaus, Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital, MS Society, NSPCC, ORBIS, Oxfam, PDSA, Rainbow Trust, RHS, RNLI, RSPB, RSPCA, ss Great Britain Trust, Wandle Trust, Wild Trout Trust

I’m based in Somerset (UK), but remote working is second nature to any 21st century copywriter, so I write copy for clients and their businesses all over the world.
