About Unparalleled experience, impact-focused, on your side, a fair rate, professional service and great testimonials. Six reasons to work with me…

Unparalleled experience

I’ve been a designer for nearly 30 years, starting in-house at the Centre for Alternative Technology, the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust, Gaia Books, and at an agency working with leading arts organisations. In 2003, I launched Advocate as one of the first ethical design agencies, specialising in working with charities, non-profits and businesses creating positive impact. Few designers have this depth of experience, expertise and dedication to positive change. See my work

Impact-focused

I use brand strategy, identity and design as tools for change – solving problems and delivering results. This could mean growing your organisation, attracting more supporters, increasing funding, encouraging social change or winning campaigns. See my services

On your side

As the name ‘Advocate’ signals, I champion my clients. I share their commitment and I’m dedicated to their success. This passion shines through in work that’s insightful, made with care and effective. See my ethics

A fair rate

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 of my time for your budget than higher-charging agencies can offer. And more time means more considered, creative and effective work. See my design rate

Professional service

I provide a personal, friendly and proactive service. And you’ll have direct contact with me throughout the project, ensuring clear communication and a consistent approach at every stage.
