She has helped meet tight deadlines at busy times and always been on time at less stressful periods; the quality of her copy editing has been extremely impressive; she remains a pleasure to deal with and has responded to all requests quickly and efficiently.”

Gareth Blatchford, Moot Editorial and Design

“Helen is a thorough and reliable editor who always follows the brief and completes every task to a very high standard. I know that when I send work to Helen it will be carefully reviewed and reflect our house style which she has taken time to learn and implement. I recommend Helen to everyone looking for a communicative, friendly, and easy editor to work with.”

She produces work of the highest standard and never misses a deadline. I always know that, no matter how complex the project, if I send it to Helen it’s in the safest of hands. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
