CV
My company has over 20 years’ experience of writing, editing and publishing a wide range of award-winning materials for the charity, education, healthcare and medical fields – from newsletters and booklets to patient leaflets and annual reports.
As head of publications for Cancerbackup for 8 years, I have gained the understanding and expertise to deliver accurate, appropriate and sensitively written materials for these audiences. And as former editor of Mims Magazine and Geriatric Medicine he can produce snappy copy to a deadline, or edit draft text to suit its audience.
