To support my professional development, I take part in a number of networks that help members share good practice and keep abreast of new skills and developments.

I write a regular column for the Society for Editors and Proofreaders (SfEP) magazine Editing Matters called 'A cut above: how to be a true editorial professional'. To read these articles, see links below. New editions are uploaded on the site as they are published, every two months. If you would like to be alerted when the next one is available, email me by clicking here.

I sit on the Steering Group of the National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO) Publishers Forum. I would urge anyone in the voluntary sector publishing to join this forum, which runs events throughout the year. For more information, click here.

On September 19 2006, I will be giving a lecture at the SfEP conference entitled Taking a client-focused approach. To read a synopsis of the lecture, click here.

I am also a member of the National Union of Journalists, an Associate of the SfEP and an NCVO Approved Consultant.
