Creating engaging and accessible content for your employees, clients and customers.
Many organisations do not have in house communications specialists for a variety of reasons, which is where I can help. If you are looking for a writer with expertise in engaging audiences spanning countries, cultures and abilities then look no further. I'm here to help you achieve success through compelling and persuasive content.
I have worked in the charity sector writing content for audiences with differing physical and mental abilities, as well as global private companies with a wide variety of cultures, interests and needs. This gives me a unique ability to put myself in the shoes of a wide range of different audiences to deliver compelling content which hits the mark and achieves success.
You may think that AI can fill your needs, however as a content writer, I do so much more than just words. I am a strategic partner with my clients, exploring your needs through a human lense to ensure the best outcome. I know the best questions to ask and can connect emotionally with target audiences. So if you want content that ais relatable and impactful, you need a human writer not a robot.
Whether you need to engage your employees or sell a product or service through blogs, scripting videos or rewriting your website - I can help! With years of experience in drafting content from emails to v/blogs, articles and more. I can help you develop copy for a multitude of channels including apps, social media, video, websites and printed copy. Leaving a lasting impression, my content will be tailored to your tone of voice, brand and style sheet, and help to achieve the results you want.
Delivering on time is critical to the success of your project. When you work with me, you can rest assured that your content will be delivered promptly without compromising on quality.
I believe in building strong relationships with my clients. I'll work closely with you, listening to your ideas, incorporating your feedback and offering creative and strategic suggestions to make sure you are absolutely satisfied with the final result.
Charging by the day (based on an 8 hour working day) but working alongside a full time position so delivering your project mostly outside of office hours, I will be flexible to accommodate meetings and collaborating where needed. Rates will vary depending on the type of work and I can offer charity rates, please get in touch for a quote.

I am willing to help you with whatever content needs you have, if it;s not listed here - just ask me!My name is Lucy Read and I am a London based content writer with experience in both global corporate and not for profit organisations.
Read Communications is a freelance writing service to help with your business needs, whatever they may be. I am here to help you achieve success.
Integrity - inclusion and accessibility are central to the content I create. Content is for everyone and should be accessible by anyone, which is becoming difficult in our fast and increasingly digital world. Diversity is a reality, inclusion is a choice.
Listening - putting my clients at the heart of what I do produces positive results, but this is only achieved with two way listening and an openness to change.
