Hi and thanks for visiting my website.
I’m Laura, I’m a freelance journalist, broadcaster, social commentator and sometime agony aunt. My work has appeared all over the world and I’ve been published in more than 22 countries in a wide variety of newspapers and magazines.
I’m a regular on BBC Radio 2′s Jeremy Vine show and often guest on Five Live programmes. I ‘appear’ frequently on BBC Radio Wales and many BBC local radio stations. Though it’s not for me to say, I’ve been told I have a wonderful voice and give good rant!
I’ve done the odd bit of TV too appearing on BBC Breakfast and BBC2′s The Daily Politics.
In addition to journalism I work as a communications consultant for NHS North West and have worked as a copywriter for Virgin Trains, Families at Work, QUIT – the charity that helps people stop smoking – and a number of local council publications across the country.
Samples of my work are posted on my work tab and I’ll also post news items as and when something happens in my world that I think may be of interest.
I know journalists’ websites are often visited by people keen to break into the industry. So I’ve put a bit about this under my FAQs and there are also some helpful websites listed in the links I like tab. I hope it’s useful.
