UK Copywriters Directory

I am a one-stop shop for your content needs - a friendly, skilled writer and editor with 30 years' experience in publishing, working across the business and consumer sectors. I hold a BA (hons) degree in English and art from the University of Surrey and have built my career in newspapers, magazines and online channels. My business specialisms encompass everything from international security to healthcare and the pharmaceutical industry. In my spare (?) time I am a stained glass artist (and I've had articles published on this topic too) - but that is another story! Let me help you write your story - from an advert to an article, a Tweet to a thesis or a website to a white paper. I also write blogs for companies' websites, building engagement, trust and brand awareness that build reputation and lead to sales. I specialise in cleverly-crafted, creative content - no flannel, flummox or fluff.

My curiously analytical x creative brain makes me a keen researcher. If I don’t know something, I’ll learn it. I particularly like to work with passion-led start-ups, creative small businesses and entrepreneurs with a conscience. If that sounds like you, you'll likely want to free up more time to spend doing what you love. So, just leave the words to me. I'll take the time and care to get a feel for your business and what makes it tick, engage the tone of voice that attracts your ideal audience, and craft copy and content that works just as hard as you do.

Perhaps you need to provide instructions for a new product you sell, or new content for a website you've designed. If you’re looking for simple, engaging content, I can help. I've been a writer, editor and proofreader for over 20 years, specialising in writing for the web. I've been producing digital content since the 90s, so I know how people use the web and how organisations can benefit from understanding the "user journey". I particularly enjoy "translating" complex or technical information into layman's terms - I love writing instructions! As a freelancer, I have written or edited content for The Children's Society, the European Commission, the Citizenship Foundation and Birmingham City Council, as well as many smaller organisations and individuals, especially in the areas of health and wellbeing, and social care.
