What I do
I help education and not-for-profit organisations to communicate with their audiences and tell their stories
My background
With around 30 years’ experience as a communications and PR professional working mainly in the education and not-for-profit sectors I know how to create a communications strategy and put it into practice, craft messages that resonate, write and edit just about anything, get great media coverage, engage with communities and build effective teams.
I have worked for colleges and universities, awarding bodies, membership organisations, charities, social enterprises and public sector bodies, ranging from tiny not-for-profits to large, complex organisations – both in house and as a freelancer.
I like to work with organisations whose values I share – anyone that has education and learning at the heart of their mission.
Good communication is all about …
telling stories
Clear simple messages that cut through the clutter are at the heart of good communication.
That means simple language that resonates with people and images that stand out.
