Other writing and projects.
Most of my work has involved writing of some sort. From press releases, features, case studies and blog articles, to health information and campaign briefings for multiple audiences. I’ve written for and collated newsletters, contributed to academic papers and service information resources. I’ve also designed and created content for websites. A snapshot of my work is presented below.
Alongside my own writing, I’ve been involved in reviewing and editing a wide variety of health information publications, campaign assets and articles, written by others.
