About Amplifying positive impact since 2003

In 2003, I launched Advocate as one of the first ethical design agencies to help organisations striving for a fairer, healthier and greener world increase their impact through branding and design. Few designers have this depth of experience, expertise and dedication to positive change. See my work

I'll use brand strategy, identity and design to help you increase your impact. This could mean launching or growing your organisation, attracting more supporters, increasing funding, encouraging social change or winning campaigns. See my services

As the name Advocate declares, I’ll champion you. I'm on your side. Having been an environmental campaigner and activist, I share your vision and commitment, and this will shine through in work that makes a difference.

I’m not greenwashing, purpose washing or jumping on the ethical bandwagon. Advocate is a genuine force for good because I’ve always chosen to work with organisations that are a force for good: charities, non-profits and ethical businesses. See what makes Advocate an ethical design agency

I support my clients by basing my rate on the Joseph Rowntree Foundation’s Minimum Income Standard and keeping my overheads low. As a result, you get more time for your budget than most agencies can give. And more time means more considered, creative and effective work. See my design rate

I’ll lead your project from start to finish. No account managers, no layers of communication and no handovers between teams. Just a collaborative process built around clear communication, thoughtful design and attention to detail. And if specialist skills are needed, I’ll bring in and manage trusted collaborators, such as developers, copywriters, photographers or illustrators.
