At some point nearly every public sector organisation – large or small – can use a little extra help to ensure the content they publish is the best it can be.
Perhaps you’re a publications, communications or content manager of a government agency, local authority or non-departmental public body with limited in-house editing resources and tight deadlines to meet.
What do you need your content to do?
What you publish might need to meet policy, regulatory and legal requirements, be open to scrutiny, manage people’s expectations and guide difficult conversations.
You want to produce information helps change happen, supports continuous improvement and enables service users to make informed choices. Maybe your aim is to strengthen internal and external relationships, join up services and share good practice.
What are you looking for?
Perhaps you’re worried your content is not having the right impact or could potentially undermine your organisation’s credibility. Maybe so many individuals have been involved in writing it that the end result feels disjointed and important points get lost.
Are people reading your reports, clear about your messages and responding to them? Or are they left confused about what you’re trying to say, put off by the tone and style, or distracted by errors?
You need someone you can trust to do a really thorough job to schedule, even on those long reports, policies, reviews and strategy documents that have to be done (and done well).
A fresh pair of eyes and attention to detail can ensure your content makes sense, is accurate, readable and meaningful and supports your overall objectives.
The right writer and editor will do the checks necessary to ensure conclusions and recommendations are based on robust information and coherent arguments. They will understand the purpose of your content and the language, tone and style needed to achieve that.
