As a journalist by training, five years on regional newspapers and circa 10 years writing, editing and project managing magazines, I have a wealth of experience and skills to help you and your business communicate key information to your chosen audience(s).
How I can help
Professional reports – when you need a professional report to be researched and written for your organisation’s members, a government department or other audience, I can help by either taking on the project in part or full.
Desk-based research – if you have a wider project that requires some desk-based research to be conducted, but don’t have capacity in-house.
Interviews – if you have a project that requires more in-depth research, I can conduct interviews for you either face to face, via phone or via email.
Writing – I can write blogs or magazine articles, or brochures in part or full, based on desk-based research, evidence and/or personal accounts.
Magazine editing/article commissioning – if you have a heavy news week or absence in the office due to illness or holiday, I can help you meet your deadlines by offering online editorial support, such as creating well-researched feature ideas and writing commissions, or editing/proofreading submitted copy.
Book editing/writing – if you require a professional book to be written, I can help you write and research it either in part or full.
Video scripts – I can write/edit short, promotional video scripts based on the information provided.
Editing/proofreading – when you need a professional eye to check over a body of work.
Events coverage – when you have an event, such as a sector conference or seminar, that requires a journalist to attend, network on your organisation’s behalf and produce professional copy.
I’m particularly keen to work with organisations that have a social mission to help the wellbeing of individuals or society as a whole, such as social enterprises and entrepreneurs who subscribe to this philosophy.
If you have a project that you think I could help with, drop me an email at editorialventures@gmail.com or give me a call on 07905 358383. My fee varies depending on the task required and responsibility involved, but generally speaking this ranges from £200 to £350 a day.

“Many agencies and contractors promise to integrate with their client’s business and culture, in order to deliver on strategic aims, but few actually do. Carina is one of those few and was an invaluable member of the communications team who understood both the daily challenges and the bigger piece. She is highly dedicated and professional and was liked and trusted by key stakeholders and personalities, both internally and externally.”
