I’m Ruth Dawkins, a freelance communications professional based in Hobart, Tasmania.

I offer copywriting, editing and proofreading services.

My clients include small businesses, universities and research organisations, charities and not-for-profits, the travel and tourism sectors, and government departments at every level – local, state and federal.

I’m also an experienced feature writer in the areas of lifestyle, parenting, environment and travel.

Please take some time to explore my site and get in touch if you think I can help.

I always breathe more easily when Ruth is on board with a project. I know she’ll respond attentively to the brief and capture the essence of the story in a way that will not only engage our supporters, but will also help them understand how they can contribute to change. Ruth has helped us with our annual fundraising campaign to protect the Merri Creek and its landscapes, as well as enewsletter stories and annual report case studies. She always completes her work on or before deadline. I also find that donors, supporters or staff she interacts with in the course of her work, come away feeling energised to continue their work. I highly recommend Ruth.

It’s always so nice to know there’s a friendly local face behind a corporate Social Media account, and Ruth was always the epitome of this for the Tasmanian Writers Centre. So many places struggle with the balance between voice, engagement, and call to action, but Ruth managed this perfectly.
