Background

I was approached by Leasa at well-known household brand Ingham’s to help edit and proofread their 2021 Annual Report to get it ready for publication.

Brief

The job was split into different sections, including corporate governance, remuneration report, sustainability report and operational highlights. The areas I was asked to look at included grammar, capital v lower, and active versus passive voice, plus a final proofread.

Approach

For each section, I carried out a three-step editing process. Firstly, I corrected any errors and made substantial changes and suggestions. Secondly, I ran it through an AI grammar app. Finally, I gave it another going over to proof and make any final tweaks. The editing helped make the document more consistent and engaging.
