She is personable with interviewees from all walks of life which makes them feel at ease and results in fabulous magazine-style pieces. A rare mix of creative and hyper-organised; deadlines are always met and often exceeded. A joy to work with!

Hayley ScottMarketing Manager, Whistlefish
“Suzie is a valuable member of the Stranger Collective talent pool. We draw on her writing, editing, proofreading and research skills regularly and she’s worked on a wide range of projects, from long copy for client publications to concept copy for national advertising campaigns. She takes time to understand every brief, delivers quickly and efficiently and is happy to work in the office as part of a writing team, on site with clients, or remotely, on her own. Plus she makes great cake!
Clare HowdleOwner, Stranger Collective
“It is impossible to overestimate how important Suzie's role was in providing clear, accurate and timely information in a front line customer service. Her press releases effectively communicated complex messages on many strategic issues and she readily engaged in special project work such as providing a fascinating insight into local history in a series of heritage information panels. Suzie provided an essential skill and always to a professional level.
Paul NorrisHead of Leisure Services, Fylde Borough Council
“Suzie worked at setting up and implementing a marketing strategy based around our new website. The focus was on creating content and developing our social media presence. Throughout the year Suzie's input was invaluable, helping us to grow and develop our brand, reaching out to various different clients through out the world. As a small business, having had the opportunity to work with Suzie and for her to help us at this time of growth has been a brilliant experience and has helped shape what our business is today.
Tom RaffieldOwner, Tom Raffield Ltd
“We were introduced to Suzie when we were looking to create content for our annual report. She really brought to life the message we were wanting to get across and made it engaging for readers. We ended up with a fantastic report that really showcases our work.
Mark PhillipsTax/ Financial Accountant, ShelterBox
“I worked with Suzie for about a year, developing our website content, producing email marketing campaigns and writing copy for blogs and print. The tone of voice was always aligned with our brand and it was great having someone who could just conjure up great sounding words.
Daisy SawleDirector, Marraum
“Suzie was of immense help when I was stuck for time and needed someone to very quickly rabbit out some information to help me finish a book chapter. She cracked on very quickly, kept me updated on her search methods and in the end, was able to uncover the single piece of info that turned out to a perfect fit for what I needed. Job done. Very pleased.
Sonia ThomasAuthor
“Suzie was a valuable member of my team for almost 5 years. During that time we benefited from her huge reserves of creativity and her ability to turn stodgy information into interesting and engaging copy. She has an innate writing ability and is also gifted in the way that she can identify good story angles. Suz also has an ability to see problems and think of ways of resolving issues making her a ‘smooth operator’!
Barbara AirdPR Manager, Blackpool Council
“I love having Suzie on the team. She is a great writer, always full of enthusiasm and a clear understanding of how to develop content with authenticity, creativity and accuracy. Her experience also means I can get her to work on some of our toughest briefs, which require pragmatism and perseverance. She is also very funny, which is a bonus!
Nina WhitbyHead Honcho, The Happy Seven
“Suzie always follows our briefs attentively, and provides the tone and content that our clients require. Her writing is of a high quality, which makes our editing process smoother and faster. She never misses deadlines.
Mal DarwenProject Manager, Alban Digital
“We thoroughly enjoyed our time working with Suzie. She took our brief and worked her creative magic on it with a much faster turnaround than we'd expected. Suzie took the time to really understand what we were trying to achieve through our copy, how that was best communicated to our audience, and how we could make ourselves stand out from competitors. We were delighted with the results. Suzie made the entire process of re-writing our existing copy so easy through her relaxed, professional approach. We'll be coming back for more!
Sarah DaveyDirector, Equin Ltd
“I always found Suzie to be an excellent communicator whose passion for writing is second to none and this is self-evident in the scope of her work. Whether she is tasked with internal or external communication Suzie conducts thorough research before putting pen to paper to ensure a high quality, engaging and knowledgeable piece of writing. Her planning skills ensure that her time is managed efficiently and her ability to provide an effective communications plan ensures a good ROI. Suzie can manage a variety of situations with ease and her relaxed persona can calm any situation.

“Suzie was extremely helpful in compiling the Porthleven Town Trail. Her research skills and ability to then edit down the vast amount of information she had gathered and present it in a way that is interesting and draws the reader in was perfect for the project.
Cllr Andrew WallisPorthleven CIC
Suzie is available when you need her, does fantastic work and brings great ideas along too. We’d certainly recommend her for anyone undertaking research, writing and project management tasks.
“Your enthusiasm and commitment and your accessible and well crafted press releases ensured fabulous coverage for our event in local, regional, national and digital medias.
Prof Vanessa ToulminDirector, National Fairground Archive
“Suzie's enthusiasm and tenacity made publicising the launch of our revamped restaurant and new menu to local media and national food writers a breeze. Her writing is of a very high standard and using email and social media she was able to connect with journalists near and far to make them aware of Amelies and our latest news. We'll definitely be using Suzie again for future projects and I'd recommend her services to anyone looking to publicise their business to customers near and far.
Sam Sheffield-DunstanOwner, Amelie Porthleven
“Suzie is adept at writing creative pieces, with specialisms including tourism, heritage and the arts. She has also been fantastic at finding the news and human interest elements of seemingly drier and more complex subjects. Working for a Council means that difficult, technical information often needs to be turned into information which is simple for the general public to understand - and this is a skill Suzie is extremely good at. Her articles for community newspaper Your Blackpool and internal magazine Blackpool Brief, as well as the hundreds of press releases she wrote for the Council, have been focused, interesting and timely and the Council Tax leaflet she took charge of editorially was nominated for a CIPR award.
Jenny BollingtonHead of Media and Communications, Blackpool Council
“Suzie was a real asset to the Working Party. She took the time to really understand the project, the needs of the consultation and what the Working Party wanted to communicate to the public. She then crafted these into a compelling story presented in a professional manner, as well as organised events and viewings for us. The whole process was managed from start to finish and delivered to a challenging timescale and the outcome was that those who visited the consultation had a full understanding of what we are looking to do.
Cllr Michael ToyPorthleven Town Council
“"Suzie was a great help to us as we tackled the redevelopment of our website rewriting the copy on hundreds of pages consistently and efficiently. She regularly communicated with us and highlighted issues so we could update the content and set content guidelines. She also kept her eye on the bigger picture flagging where content would sit better elsewhere to get us the best product."
