I’m the Editor of the Blackpool Gazette and the Lancashire Post managing all the content created for National World readers in Blackpool and the Fylde Coast and Preston and Lancashire. I write a mix of regional and hyper local content but specialise in local news, crime, human interest, retail, food & drink and travel.

Originally from Poulton-le-Fylde, I completed my Post Graduate Diploma in Journalism at the University of Central Lancashire after completing my degree at the University of Leeds. I have spent my working career in the North West covering predominantly Lancashire, Manchester and Cumbria. I love Lancashire and the variety of stories it enables me and my talented team to write. If you have a story don't hesitate to get in touch!.
