Drug Science is the UK's leading independent scientific body on drugs and drug research, working to provide clear, evidence-based information without political or commercial interference. I led on all of the organisation's press and media work.

I led on major profile-raising and fundraising campaigns for a range of leading UK charities, with all creative work being based on in-depth interviews, research and audience insight. Successes included a nationwide campaign for the RSPB in 2018, helping it prepare for incoming GDPR legislation. As a result the organisation retained contact with a record 71 per cent of its donors (the most successful campaign of its kind by any UK charity).
