UK Copywriters Directory

  • My background in publishing gives a distinctive foundation to my skill set as a copywriter. I have more than a decade of experience working on local and regional publications with the associated breadth of expertise as a researcher, interviewer, writer and editor. I'm a skilled communicator with the ability to quickly establish a rapport with others. This has proved especially valuable for B2B work in terms of protecting and enhancing client relationships. The ability to read between the lines and accurately interpret a client's needs (even when they find that difficult to articulate!) is one of my key strengths. I'm experienced in various areas of copywriting and clients range from small independent businesses to large, international companies. Projects completed include everything from awards applications to high-profile branding. I love variety and no job is too big or too small. Ability to work under pressure and meet deadlines a speciality.


  • I'm a freelance journalist and copywriter with over a decade of experience writing campaigns for brands such as Nestle and Estee Lauder. I have a particular interest in psychology, food and travel, and I'm regularly commissioned by national newspapers and consumer magazines. See my website rosieifould.co.uk for more details.

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

“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.”
