You know I love a font. Here is Sunday which is free in Canva. Anyone else think it looks like the font from the Beetlejuice movie posters?

I’m really excited to be designing the new website for the Norse Institute!

This site is all about putting content front and centre with a huge wealth of resources and shared knowledge to organise. NORSE (New Onset Refractory Status Epilepticus) and FIRES (Febrile Infection-Related Epilepsy Syndrome) are rare, severe neurological conditions that affect both children and adults. My goal is to make sure clinical professionals and families affected by these conditions can easily find the information they need, without feeling overwhelmed.

It’s a vital project, and I can’t wait to help make this valuable content accessible and clear for everyone who relies on it.

Every project is different, and so is the price. I base my quotes on the scale and complexity of the work involved. If you’ve got something in mind, let’s have a proper chat.

Just been given the go-ahead on a shiny new project but now it’s time to wade through a jungle of complex medical jargon, decipher ancient web copy, and somehow turn it all into clear, human English.

Send frappuccino. And snacks. I’m going to be here a while.

Design isn’t just about making something look nice. It’s about solving a real problem clearly, carefully and creatively.

That’s why every charity website I build starts with a question: What is the purpose of you website?

The answer shapes everything.

New client alert!

I’m delighted to be working with Breckland Children’s Clothes Bank, a newly set up charity doing mighty work across Norfolk.

This is their first website, a small but powerful digital home for their mission: providing free clothing parcels to children aged 0–14, ensuring no child has to go without the basics.

In these tough times, their support is more essential than ever. Like the charity itself, the website is small but mighty: practical, welcoming, and built to grow with them.
Watch this space!

It’s Small Charities Week this week!

Did you know a little engagement online can go a long way for a small charity?

If you’ve got a favourite cause, here are six quick (and totally free) ways to show them some love today:

• Share one of their posts
• Like a recent update
• Tag a mate who might care too
• Leave a kind comment
• Post a photo and tag them
• Write a lovely review

It’s easy to scroll past, but that tiny tap or tag really does help. Your engagement boosts their visibility, helps them reach more people, and gets more support flowing their way.

Algorithms love attention let’s use that for good 💛

When I build websites for charities, I’m not just choosing colours and fonts, I’m helping them tell their story.

The story of why they started.
Who they’re fighting for.
And what happens when someone chooses to care.

Stories move people. They spark donations, action, belief. That’s the power of great storytelling and great web design should never be without it.

Did you know that individuals aged 65 to 74 had the highest monthly volunteering rate at 23%, while those aged 25 to 34 had the lowest at 11%. They aren't called the golden oldies for nothing.

It's always nice to get away from the desk. We spent a long weekend in Italy visiting old churches, old castles and eating waaaaaay too much pizza.

This is Milo. Milo is not good at fetch.

Sometimes he loses the stick. Sometimes he returns with a different stick entirely. Once it was a leaf.

But he gives it 100% every time. That’s what makes him 100% a good boy. 🐾

I’ve been working on a fundraising campaign for the incredible team at Abbie’s Army, who are doing everything they can to fight one of the most devastating childhood cancers – DIPG.

DIPG is a rare and aggressive brain cancer that mostly affects children aged just 6 or 7. Because of where it grows, deep in the PONS area of the brain — it’s inoperable. That means there’s currently no cure. Most children diagnosed with DIPG are given just 9 to 12 months to live. It’s as shit as it sounds.

Despite this, DIPG remains one of the most underfunded areas of cancer research. That’s why the work Abbie’s Army does is so vital.

If you can spare just £1 (or even £1 a month) it really does make a difference. Please donate if you can, and share this post to help spread the word.
Thank you for reading, donating, sharing, and being lovely 💖

I'm kind of like a information squiral, but rather than hoarding acorns, I collect annual reports, podcast transcripts, research articles and that one weirdly helpful Facebook post from 2017.

Is it chaotic? Yes.
Is it necessary? Also yes.
Is it all part of the process? Absolutely.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to give my laptop time to cool down.

It's DIPG Awareness Day on 17th May and you bet your butt I'm going to harp on about it over the next few days, because children's brain cancer is shit. I've been working with the amazing @abbies_army to put together some social posts, blog posts and a dedicated landing page for their fundraiser. Please donate £1 and raise money to fund research into DIPG the link is in their bio. Thank you!

It’s World Maternal Mental Health Week.
Between the hormones, the sleep deprivation, the body changes, and your whole life suddenly revolving around someone else…
You’re never alone, but somehow feel completely alone.
Motherhood is hard. Really hard.

That’s why charities like @fromebirthtalk are so important.
They help new parents make sense of the avalanche of complex, overwhelming emotions that come with being a mum.
Because no one should have to carry all of that on their own.
