Self employment case studies

Hayley - MSc Science Communication

I write articles for science magazines and websites, and edit popular science books.

Sue - BSc Psychology and Health Science, MSc Health Psychology, PhD (by research)

When I set up my business I required a clear idea of the direction my business was going to take and the unique selling point that I am offering to my clients.

Matt - BA Drawing and Applied Arts

In between graduating from UWE and starting a part-time MA in Illustration, I had a three year block where I gained business and art experiences which consisted of paid/unpaid and freelance work.

Katy - BA Cultural Media Studies and Film

I love that I can choose my own hours. I love the job itself so I find myself working more than my friends who have 9-5 jobs but it makes me really happy so I don't mind a bit. I also like that I am not a little cog in a large machine - I have personal involvement with every project.
