I wrote the Autumn/Winter '17 edition of WaterAid's supporter magazine - Oasis.

As the theme was how dirty water and a lack of toilets affects children (killing a child every two minutes and having a range of negative impacts), we made the issue a 'kids' takeover'. We invited six local schoolchildren to join the editorial team, collaborating in decision-making and creating content.

The edition was a hit with the 300,000 supporters who received the magazine, generating great feedback over the phone and on social media, and exceeding its financial targets.

The kids loved it too.

I can help your magazine engage and inspire your audiences. Say hello.


Richard possesses such a skill for crafting beautiful copy that any audience can connect with - and across a range of channels. He’s my go-to person for excellent editorial judgement and, quite simply, a wonderful writer and editor.
