About Kate

My name is Kate Philbin. I am a copywriter, editor, journalist, blogger and proofreader. I work for some of the largest organisations in the UK, as well as SMEs and individuals.

I am a published journalist, writing for consumer and trade titles, and Wellbeing Editor for a sustainable living and health lifestyle magazine. My work has been published in national and international journals, as well as online. I cover every aspect of commercial copywriting, editing and proofreading.

I offer copywriting coaching and mentoring, as well as group workshops. I also run a diagnostic and advice service called Copy Clinic which supports you to make changes to your own content with the benefit of expert guidance.

I hold a BA (Hons) degree in English Language and Literature and am a qualified Clinical Hypnotherapist with an in depth understanding of the language of persuasion.

I work across a wide range of specialist areas including health, wellbeing, biotechnologies, international trade, training and development, and corporate. I am a Crown Commercial Supplier (a writer to government and large public sector organisations) and an approved member of NHS IMAS (Interim Management and Support).

I am reliable, honest, professional, friendly and fun. I write clear, concise, compelling copy according to the principles of Plain English. I love brevity, simplicity and inclusivity. I hate jargon.

I build open, supportive relationships with my clients and I believe in adding value wherever I can.

I run a number of websites besides this one, including www.dresstoexpress.co.uk, www.uplifetingstories.co.uk and www.casestudywriters.com
