UK Copywriters Directory

    Over a 30-year career (yes, it really is that long!), I've written and edited copy for pretty much every sector - and probably yours. When I'm fuelled by a mug of tea, which is every hour, you'll find me unstoppable. I can turn from writing a case study on healthcare in the morning to thinking up a marketing slogan for workspace specialists after lunch and editing an annual report for a charity in the afternoon. I understand the pressures that communications and marketing pros are under and the challenges you face, because I've hopped over the client fence twice – once as head of visual identity at ING Barings and then as head of PR and communications at Regus. While you fully own your content strategy, I can help you execute it, giving you more time to spend on what you do best. You can rely on me to capture the essence of what you want to say, in the right tone of voice, and come up with ideas and solutions that communicate your vision across case studies, blogs, emails, websites, product materials and newsletters. I'm a dab hand at editing and proofreading, too.

    Becoming a copywriter happened by accident. I'd studied Italian at university, joined and left the army, and then taken myself to London to work in PR. It was there that I discovered this wonderful thing called copy. I quickly found my voice and have since freelanced as a writer in the UK, Australia and the US. Having worked in so many different industries, people ask what’s my favorite. The answer isn’t shampoo or cereal, finance or healthcare. It’s taking a message, with all its nuances and jargon, and turning it into language that’s inviting, compelling, and easy to understand. I think about it like this. If I can get my head around the workings of a complex banking process, software system, or medical device, anyone can. My job is to write it so they can.

    Do you need regular articles for your website or blog? Want help turning boring case studies into compelling stories? Perhaps you need to provide instructions for a new product you sell, or new content for a website you've designed. If you’re looking for simple, engaging content, I can help. I've been a writer, editor and proofreader for over 20 years, specialising in writing for the web. I've been producing digital content since the 90s, so I know how people use the web and how organisations can benefit from understanding the "user journey". I particularly enjoy "translating" complex or technical information into layman's terms - I love writing instructions! As a freelancer, I have written or edited content for The Children's Society, the European Commission, the Citizenship Foundation and Birmingham City Council, as well as many smaller organisations and individuals, especially in the areas of health and wellbeing, and social care. Before freelancing I spent four years as Content Editor for National Express, followed by five years with Maverick Television as Senior Writer for Channel 4's 4Homes website.

    Hello. I’m a writer and content specialist with over 10 years’ experience writing for clients in the brand communication industry. Whether it’s thought-leadership, corporate communications, web content, brochures, award entries, press releases or brand strategy – my writing will always strive to express your ideas and connect with audiences. And what about a specialism, I hear you ask? Longer pieces are my strong suit. I’m very happy researching and writing articles, reports, opinion-pieces and e-books on a variety of topics. I work closely with the author or ‘knowledge-holder’; taking an idea and turning it into a story. I can also help develop the brief; brainstorming themes and related ideas for a series or campaign, keeping your blog and social media feeds fresh and engaging. A bit of planning never goes amiss when it comes to successful content. Whatever your marketing goal - raising your profile, driving prospects to your website (and getting them to stay there), or building your network - well-planned, quality content plays an important role. Developing and writing a strategy for your content is the first step to making sure what you produce is relevant and focused. Recent experience includes developing a content strategy and producing regular articles to support the positioning of a leading brand design consultancy. Need some headspace? Have some of mine.

    Hi I’m a copywriter, normally working within my specialism in bios and web copy. However, I'm currently available for quickturaround projects and b2c businesses including web pages and product descriptions. So if you're looking to jazz up some pages on your ecommerce website e.g. homepage, services page or about page, just message me. I also provide dynamic lead magnets such as white papers, case studies and brochure copy as an add-on service to clients I'm working with. I would normally work with businesses in the b2b sector, and I have a particular interest in health and mental health/assisted tech. I also provide LinkedIn profiles, either just summaries or the full page, including experiences and qualifications and recs advice. Always friendly and communicative, I really like to get to know my clients so I can produce the best work I can. Interviews and questions can help me really get to the heart of who you are and create killer copy. I place a strong emphasis on storytelling and using it to connect with your target audience. It's important to know where in the journey your customers are, how you can serve them and truly understand how to solve their pain points. Your web copy is your business calling card, so it's important not to treat it as an afterthought. Whether it's a quick turnaround or more in-depth well researched copy I can help.

    Hi, I'm a friendly, experienced copywriter based in Glasgow. I’ve got over six years of experience creating content that makes people want to buy services, experiences and products. Writing should have personality and that’s what I can bring to your brand. I'll always avoid waffle and write clear, understandable, interesting content that gets your audience engaged. SEO always comes as standard but there’s no writing for the ‘bots here. Some things I've written words for include webpages, e-newsletters, social media, blogs, marketing campaigns, brochures, advertorials, direct mail pieces, press releases, product descriptions, leaflets, point-of-sale and toilet seat lids … thankfully the last one didn’t go down the pan! I’ll put the love and care that you would expect into creating great content for you to get people looking, talking and most importantly, buying.

“Find out what you like writing about and go all-in.”

Hannah Rose

“I am at my best in the morning, so I try to schedule all creative tasks before lunch. If I’m struggling in the morning, I use the classic strategies of changing where I’m working from, taking a break, or exercising in the hope of a Eureka moment.”

Declan Morton, Copywriter.Declan Morton

“I’ve always enjoyed writing but I didn’t set up on my own account until 2019. At that point I had been teaching for nearly two decades and had become frustrated with the academy trust to which my then school belonged. I took a plunge and set up as a freelance writer.”

Jo Watson

“I wish we were all more honest when speaking to newer or younger copywriters and telling them what to expect in their career. It’s a hard job, it’s constantly evolving, and it’s still nowhere near as widely respected (as both an art and a science) as it should be.”
