Wordspring - Work by Sector

Work by sector

My work spans a variety of sectors, from charities, arts and heritage and music through to media companies, food and drink, and technology.

As a musician, I love getting into a brief that involves music, and am particularly keen on finding ways to help charities connect with their audiences more effectively. Please have a look at these examples and do get in touch if you have a project where you think I could help.

Cauldron design agency asked me to help them define a tone of voice for Atypical, a new Silicon Roundabout legal start up firm. We held a workshop with the key players, which established what makes this firm stand out from the crowd.

World leaders have made a lot of promises about saving babies and children from dying.

But are they just empty promises?

Stringing Words Together

Playing a piece of music is like telling a story. A good storyteller knows how to capture an audience’s attention, vary the pace, add in the detail that hooks the imagination, and carry listeners along, ensuring they’re eager to hear the end of the story.
National Trust

I’ve worked on various projects for the National Trust over the years, in partnership with Lynn Blackadder, a consultant in organisational development for the arts and heritage sectors.

I’ve had a soft spot for donkeys since my Grandma took me on a mystery coach tour to Weston-super-Mare and I had a ride on a beach donkey called Flora.
