Parham House & Gardens - 2020 to 2021

• Content strategy

• Copy editing

• Blog writing

• PR

• Website overhaul

I oversaw all content at this beautiful Elizabethan historic house in West Sussex from January 2020 to April 2021. My role involved generating story ideas for the website, social channels, newsletters and PR; writing and editing blogs; curating all content for social media; liaising with photographers and advising on strategy.

Parham was unable to open to visitors throughout the 2020 season due to the Coronavirus pandemic. I opted for an editorial approach in the types of stories and content we published, generating substantial growth in engagement and followers across all social platforms.

My final project was a complete overhaul of the website, liaising with designers, working with the family on vision and content and bringing together all the moving parts.

The website launched in April 2021 and is a triumph – see here. Thank you to Speccy Media and Penta Studio for all your hard work.

Below is an interview I did with Parham’s chatelaine Lady Emma Barnard, published in local arts and culture magazine South Coast Journal.
