Treatments range from a simple paper repair on a precious document, to making a conservation phase box to protect a vulnerable book, or sympathetically re-binding a treasured family heirloom. Wherever possible, I try to preserve as much of the original binding as I can, in order to retain the original character of the book. All work is carried out using the finest conservation-quality materials and adhesives, and traditional techniques.

Clients include the National Trust, museums and private collections. I am part of a team of bookbinders and paper conservators working on an in-situ library conservation project at All Souls College, Oxford, and train conservation volunteers at the Devon and Exeter Institution.
