I’m Ruby Henry-Dicks, a creative communicator and storyteller based in Manchester.

I recently completed an MA in Multimedia Journalism at Manchester Metropolitan University, following a Law degree from Liverpool John Moores University. My background bridges analytical research with creativity, blending writing, design, and digital storytelling to engage audiences and bring ideas to life.

I currently work freelance with Bron Yr Aur, a creative micronation business, where I contribute to brand storytelling, newsletters, content creation, and social media engagement. This role has allowed me to develop a strong understanding of community-driven communication and digital strategy.

Previously, I founded and edited The Northern Quarterly, a community magazine celebrating Manchester’s Northern Quarter. Managing every stage from concept to publication gave me hands-on experience in writing, design, and project management – skills I now apply across media and communication contexts.

Drawing on my background in law, journalism, and creative media, I bring clarity, structure, and curiosity to every project. I’m continuing to build my skills through freelance work and professional development, while seeking opportunities in communications, digital media, and marketing where I can grow, collaborate, and make a lasting impact.

Thank you for visiting my portfolio — here you’ll find examples of my work, current projects, and creative journey.
