About Sophie
Approachable & passionate
You’d think as a strategic communications consultant, I’d have plenty to say about myself, but I’ll admit I’m often lost for words when it comes to my own story.
There’s nothing wrong with that, it just means I’m more focused on telling your story.
I understand the dilemma of putting yourself out there. Talking about yourself can feel uncomfortable – I’ve been there too.
That’s why I’m here to make it easier for you, using words that feel natural and truly reflect who you are.
People often say I have a unique way of making them feel like they’ve known me for ages, creating a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere, whether we’re working together or simply chatting.
Helping People and Businesses Thrive
Growing up in leafy Cheshire, running through fields and climbing haystacks, I developed a fascination with people’s stories.
Those playful childhood memories sparked my imagination and ignited a lifelong love for storytelling.
I’ve always been curious about people’s stories – personally and professionally – and this curiosity helped shape my career.
Now, in Yorkshire, I get to help businesses tell theirs in a way that connects. And I support you every step of the way.
Just like nurturing my family and garden, my approach is about helping people, teams, and businesses grow.
Whether it’s your story, your message or your brand, I nurture it from the ground up, giving it the care and attention it needs to thrive.
From Childhood Imagination
to Hard Hitting Life Stories
My National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ) qualification and love for storytelling help me write messages that cut through the noise and reach the right audience.
With over 20 years of experience in journalism and communications – including media relations with West Yorkshire Police to command team level – I now work as a communications consultant.
I bring together journalism, PR expertise, and project management skills to plan and deliver high-impact digital marketing projects.
From campaign strategy to stakeholder engagement, I ensure every project is delivered with clarity, structure and purpose.
My supportive and intuitive approach aligns messaging, timelines and delivery to achieve your goals.
Sensitivity, confidentiality, and understanding people’s needs are at the core of everything I do. I guide clients through every phase of a communications campaign.
From writing press releases that get you noticed to creating content that sparks action, or managing strategic projects that amplify your brand, I love to shine the spotlight on you.
Need strategic communication and PR support? Copy that converts? I’m here to help – in person or online – to give you a voice and content that is seen, heard and remembered.
