I’m a science communications consultant for medical charities. I can help your charity talk about science in a clearer and more engaging way – strengthening your relationship with supporters, and raising more money for life-changing research.I love taking complex science and turning it into content that’s not only easy to understand, but also engaging and inspiring. Thanks to my background as a scientist, I understand the world of research and can easily get to grips with complex science.And having worked in the charity sector for more than a decade, I understand the unique role charities play, the challenges they face, and the specifics of communicating to charity audiences. My work falls into three categories:✅ WRITING: I can write impact case studies to highlight the difference your charity’s research has made, blogs to share new discoveries, lay summaries of your research portfolio, and more. This will provide your charity with ready-to-use content for engaging supporters, patients, and the public. ✅ CONSULTANCY: I can help you develop science communication strategies, content planning, and give you feedback on existing content. This will help point your team in the right direction and make sure your work is focussed on making the biggest difference for your charity.✅ TRAINING: I develop and deliver training on science writing, science communication, interviewing scientists, interpreting scientific papers, and more. This will give your team the skills to talk confidently about your charity’s research. As a freelancer, I’ve worked with a range of charities, big and small, covering many different health conditions – so I know how to adapt to best suit your needs. ▶ Want to find out how I can help your charity?
