Laura Forsyth

I am an award-winning writer and journalist, who has produced content for the UK’s biggest media publications.

Currently I am an in-house journalist, working for the London Standard’s Shopping section, focussing on affiliate-linked product round-ups and reviews for anything from laser hair removal devices, fitness trackers to the best electric bikes to ride in the city.

Previously I was the wellness and news editor at City AM, London's most-read financial and business newspaper, enjoyed by thousands of workers across the capital each weekday. I contributed to the lifestyle section, with a focus on health and wellbeing.

I have also been based at the MailOnline, The Mirror, a range of Newsquest titles and Scottish Television (STV) as a digital and print journalist. Among the other publications I have written editorial content for are The Guardian, The Telegraph, OK! Magazine, and more.

During my time at Hurst Media, I sub-edited a high volume of advertising spreads that appeared in national press (including The Times, The Sun and Evening Standard) as well as advertising features for the UK’s most-read and global news sites (such as DailyMail.com, The Sun Online and HuffPost). I also managed a team of writers, commissioned content for our titles, and was the company’s compliance officer.

My expertise also lies in digital storytelling, social media, marketing, advertising and PR – experience gained from freelance roles at a number of high-profile lifestyle brands.
