Andrea Wren
Self-employed, journalist, copywriter, & luxury travel consultant!
I've been working as a successful freelance journalist and copywriter for the last 3-4 years, writing for many national and regional print media and online publications. Current regular clients include The Guardian, North West Business Insider, iVillage.co.uk , Spirit & Destiny magazine, plus other outlets such as Glamour, The Times, The Independent, healthy, Natural Health and many more.
I also provide ad hoc copywriting services to a number of organisations but a couple of main clients have included Durham Business School and BuyAssociations.
My real love and passion is in travel, and travel journalism and writing - hence the move I have made into the travel industry to set up a luxury travel consultancy WREN ELITE TRAVEL specialising in luxury treks and tours, holidays, adventure travel, safari and spa breaks. WREN ELITE TRAVEL is a member of the Travel Trust Association, so offering full financial protection to customers, and aims to provide a more personal service other than booking on the web.
