#JournoRequest I'm looking to hear from community groups, businesses, charities and individuals who are planning and carrying out innovative initiatives to tackle climate change in #Lincolnshire.

Is that you? Pop me an email at [email protected] 👍

As a freelancer, it can be hard to switch off from work - but Christmas is the perfect opportunity to take a break, because everyone else is on holiday too! A big thank you to everyone who’s worked with me this year. Have a fantastic festive season. Signing off for 2024…

Does anyone have any recommendations for online transcription services? I currently use Amberscript, which produces very accurate copy, but isn't the cheapest... Thanks in advance for your recommendations!

I've just been getting around to updating my website again (why is it when you spend so long working on other people's websites it's easy to forget about your own?) Take a look at my updated article section to see what I've been writing: https://t.co/n3gZjt2UiR #freelance #writer

If you're a company that works with a freelancer, please do remember to include them in the feedback loop! It makes me happy to hear how a finished project has been received, hear results, or receive a printed sample of materials -so I can see the end result too 🙌 #partoftheteam

Through my work, I love getting the chance to discover more about all the fantastic events, opportunities, and community initiatives happening locally. I recently wrote an article about the Nene Park Winter Festival for @MomentMag It looks amazing!

There was much excitement in our household yesterday morning after a small flurry of snow. It's the first snow our three-year-old has properly experienced! So, before school, we ended up building the world's tiniest snowman 😂☃️

Well, it's been a busy few months and I'm just starting to resurface as I come to the end of a couple of large projects. After having no free capacity for a while, this winter I should be available to take on an extra client or two. See https://t.co/Hye36P3UPM #freelancer

[Laura Fanthorpe Communications @LauraFanthorpe]

I love this! https://t.co/Hw5hheaQQc

Just a message to all my lovely clients - I am taking a few days off this week to celebrate my (big) birthday and for some relaxed family time. I'll be picking up emails but will only be actioning anything urgent. I will be back to normal working days from the 28th Oct.

@MegandtheMedia Maybe worth seeing if the Genever sisters - 3 Daughters @ Croft Farm - fit the bill? They're on Instagram

A Walk On The Wild Side
Nene Park is not just a beloved green space for local residents in #Peterborough and the surrounding areas, it’s also home to numerous species of birds, invertebrates, reptiles, amphibians, fish and mammals. We spoke to conservation manager, Chris Rollason, to discover more about the charity’s work to welcome wildlife into the Park... https://t.co/tZfvFmGsI3

Just sharing another article I've written recently for @MomentMag on 'Food, Farming and the Family Business'. These third-generation farmers are on a mission to bring the role of women in agriculture firmly into the spotlight. Read the full article: https://t.co/YP3MtoQhKa

Today marks the end of the summer holidays for my family. We made it through! The juggle is very intense... My regular working hours have resumed - Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. I'm pretty much fully booked for Sept so get in touch if you'd like to discuss an Oct project.

Meet Ellie. She may be a great big lumbering Italian Spinone, but she doesn't know her size. Her favourite place is curled up under my desk while I'm working. I love the fact that she chooses to keeps me company while I'm typing away, and she's a great foot-warmer!

[Laura Fanthorpe Communications @LauraFanthorpe]

@beautifulpen Sounds interesting! I'll tag @MomentMag so they can see the info. Thanks Claire.

[Laura Fanthorpe Communications @LauraFanthorpe]

I've been so busy recently with a house move, childcare and my busiest ever work month that I haven't shared any updates. Here's an article I wrote for the latest issue of @MomentMag - I really enjoyed talking to the talented @MetageistVR https://t.co/YP3MtoQhKa

[Laura Fanthorpe Communications @LauraFanthorpe]

@MegandtheMedia It's been three days of utter chaos but we're loving the house and garden so much! I've been wielding secateurs rather than unpacking like I should have been 😂

[Laura Fanthorpe Communications @LauraFanthorpe]

I'm back working after the chaos of a house move. After lots of ups and downs and over 8 months waiting to exchange, I'm pleased to say we're finally in! I love waking up to these views. If you have any work enquiries, I'm now booking in projects for Sept, so get in touch.

[Laura Fanthorpe Communications @LauraFanthorpe]

To all my lovely clients: this is my last day working before I'm off to move house (finally!) next week and then I'm in the midst of the summer holiday childcare juggle. I will pick up all emails as soon as I can and I thank you for your patience and understanding.
