The most important thing to me is to make sure my clients get what they need. If they're happy, I'm happy. Below are just a few of their kind comments.

"Jude, working with you on the Explore Haltwhistle series of children's guide books has been fantastic. From the very start your enthusiasm shone through, and you have gone well above and beyond the call of duty in the time, effort and attention to detail you have given to the project. You have been a trusty guide through an unfamiliar world of design and printing, and worked with us to consult local young people and transform their ideas into reality. I think the books will be a great legacy and testament to your skills. Thank you." Gill Cowell, Coordinator, Haltwhistle Partnership


"Jude has been using her considerable skills to help us make our publications, training materials and website a lot more readable and user-friendly. She's given them a fresh, modern look and added her own pithy, to-the-point style. Jude is a pleasure to work with and a very useful resource for anyone wanting to improve the style and content of their materials." Julia Wylie, Solicitor, JW Law


"Jude, the leaflet looks truly wonderful. You have been such a star. I can't believe we have (with your enormous help) produced something of this calibre. Thank you for everything. You have worked with us, but not taken over, listened while we all put our penny's-worth in, guided us, focused us and we have ended up with a leaflet far beyond anything we could have dreamed of." Rosie Robson, Chair, Chrysalis at Tynedale


"Having you involved in delivering our pilots has been invaluable - the quality of materials was beyond our expectations and the wording, while imaginative and exciting, was easily understandable by our various audiences. You are also great fun to work with - cheers." Maggie McKenna, U decide Coordinator, Newcastle City Council


"I commissioned Jude to help me rewrite part of my website. Before she wrote anything, she listened really well, and this was hugely important. It meant I could express a lot of ideas about my work without worrying how it sounded. She then put those ideas on paper and brought out the most important themes. I have never collaborated on such a personal issue before, but found Jude completely trustworthy, genuine and capable. So if you are struggling with any writing at all, I suggest going through this process. Like a lot of small businesses, we often think we can do it all, but we are far more successful if we ask for help. I would certainly commission Jude again." Shona Branigan photographer


"We've used the Word Doctor - Jude - for several one-off jobs, and also a larger, cross-cutting review of our practice. We're happy with the quality of the work, and will certainly use her again. She doesn't just bring specialist skills to the table - she understands our business needs, and reliably delivers what she promises against very tight deadlines. To know Jude is to love her!" Peter Holt, former Communications Director, Newcastle City Council 


"Not only does Jude edit all our books, she also makes valuable contributions to how the text is written, making them a much better read. We can always be confident that, thanks to Jude, our words are impeccable." Stuart Trotter, Director, Rockpool Children's Books


"Thanks Jude for all your help in launching our staff magazine. It was a huge weight off my shoulders knowing you were behind me - always only an email away, turning copy around at lightning speed, and with your knack of lifting an article from the okay to the eye-catching. I want to know the secret of staying so calm among the deadlines!" RSPCA Internal Communications Manager


"Jude is not just a Word Doctor, she is a Word Specialist Consultant! Give her the rough ideas, she effortlessly teases out what you really want to say and then produces the most fantastic copy. She is great to work with and produces brilliant results!" Rob Woodcock, MD Investinpotential
