UK Copywriters Directory

I spent 16 years writing and editing for national newspapers, working on news, showbiz, diary, health and features. I left to train as a teacher and wrote extensively for the Times Educational Supplement before leaving the classroom to train in deaf communication. My specialisms are education and health. I'm a copywriter for an education website and I work for health websites and magazines. I spent 18 months writing about addiction for a rehab centre, so I'm pretty clued up on that. I've edited more than 50 non-fiction books and I commission authors for Pen and Sword Books. I split my time between working as a lipspeaker (providing communication support for deaf and hard-of-hearing people who don't use sign language), editing books and copywriting. I occasionally do some journalism and I also run a craft and streetfood market.
