Our editorial experts

Editorial Manager Martin Foster hard at work

Our team of experienced editors and writers can help make your print and web content a must-read. We ensure your text is clear and coherent, accurate, and adapted to the University’s preferred style and tone of voice.

Our team includes talented web developers and graphic designers who work alongside the editors to produce engaging and innovative products that are on-brand. We can also edit text for publications being designed elsewhere.

We use the University’s Editorial Style Guide to make sure our print publications and websites meet consistent standards, and we strongly recommend you also refer to it (please note you will need a UniKey for access).

To enquire about using our editing and writing services, please contact our Operations Manager, Michelle Shepherd.

If you have any questions about our editorial style, copywriting or editing, or would like to suggest additions or changes to the Editorial Style Guide, please contact our Editorial Manager, .
