Sophie Louise Clark
I write at the sweet spot between culture and copy: longform features that make you think, and brand words that make you click. My voice? Curious, clear, and just the right side of playful – because whether it’s a headline or a product description, words should always feel alive.
​
With over 10 years’ experience in print and digital publishing, I’ve worked across some of the UK’s biggest titles and brands – blending editorial storytelling with sharp, commercially aware copy. Editorial: Former Senior Fashion Market Editor at GQ and GQStyle (Condé Nast), with features published in Vogue UK, ELLE UK, Liz Earle Wellbeing, Dazed and more. Brand Copywriting: Freelance copywriter for global names including FARFETCH (localisation, editorial, marketing, e-commerce) and BODEN (creative copy and brand identity). Specialisms: Wellness, beauty, fashion, psychology and culture – covering everything from cultural trend reports and SEO features to product descriptions, tone-of-voice guidelines and BAU copy.
​
Longform features and articles (fashion, wellness, beauty, psychology, culture) Brand storytelling and campaign copy (tone of voice, taglines, product launches) Everyday brand content (web copy, product descriptions, email marketing, BAU copy) Editorial consulting (trend scanning, pitch development, brand positioning through words) Ghostwriting (blogs, lifestyle guides)
​
Alongside my writing, I’m also a professional Tarot reader and creative therapist – work that deepens my curiosity about the stories we tell ourselves and the ways we find meaning. I believe creativity should feel like nourishment, not pressure. Practice is a portal!

Mary Webb
I’m a copywriter and marketing strategist with 5 years’ experience in digital content, campaigns, and brand communications. My background includes creating website, email, and social content for charities, retailers, and community organisations — most recently at Rainbows Hospice and Burning Nights CRPS Support. I began my career at WeGo Couriers, where I managed B2B marketing campaigns, and I also founded a theatre collective, building its profile through events, blogs, and editorial. Alongside this experience, I specialise in supporting women-led and independent businesses. I’m especially passionate about lifestyle, wellness, and creative brands — helping them grow through clear, engaging marketing that connects. I bring together storytelling and strategy to deliver websites that inspire, emails people want to open, social content that builds community, and campaigns that convert. My goal is always the same: to make marketing feel authentic, human, and effective — no jargon, no fluff, just words that work.
​
Marketing Officer at WeGo Couriers (2015–2019): Created B2B campaigns, content, and sales tools for a sustainable logistics service, supporting major client wins like East Midlands Railway.
Founder of Callbacks Theatre Group (2019–2020): Built a performing arts community, combining event promotion, content creation, and editorial leadership as Editor-in-Chief of a theatre blog.
Marketing Family Liaison Officer at Rainbows Hospice (2025–present): Leading digital campaigns, producing newsletters and email marketing, and managing video storytelling projects for a leading children’s hospice.
Volunteer Social Media & Marketing Assistant at Burning Nights CRPS Support (2024): Developing social content strategies, producing fundraising campaigns, and delivering marketing analysis.
This mix of in-house, freelance, and voluntary roles has given me strong skills in copywriting, campaign planning, storytelling, and content marketing across multiple sectors.
​
Specialisms include: Lifestyle & wellness Female-founded businesses Fashion & jewellery Nonprofit & community-focused marketing Health & sustainability Content marketing & digital strategy.
​
​I believe marketing should feel clear, human, and inclusive, not jargon-filled or overwhelming. My goal in every project is simple: words that work, with purpose. A fun fact? I once ran a theatre community, which taught me as much about storytelling and audience engagement as any marketing role.
