I am an award winning public affairs professional, qualified in law, with proven expertise in influencing legislation.

Influence legislation and you change the law. Many organisations lack expertise in parliamentary drafting, and in navigating the legislative processes at Westminster and Holyrood.

I can draft Amendments to legislation, and Private Member’s Bills, to meet your organisation’s campaign aims, and to ensure your public affairs work changes the law. I can also offer expert advice on influencing legislation at Westminster and Holyrood.
