Rates
Proofreading and copyediting
There are different levels of cost, modelled on the amount and type of work that is required. More details on the approaches can be found here.
Proofreading: £14.00 per 1,000 words (identifying and amending errors in spelling, punctuation and grammar).
Copyediting: £16.50 per 1,000 words (includes amending errors in spelling, punctuation and grammar; assisting with sentence structure and phrasing; identifying issues with consistency; and ensuring referencing is accurate and complete).
Developmental editing: An intensive approach to editing, which you may feel is more appropriate for your requirements. This is suitable for text that requires a specialised focus, additional research and checks, substantial revision/restructuring or multi-phase editing and proofreading. Fees are calculated per project.

£1.15 per audio minute for a one to one or one to two interview (good quality recording)
£1.25 per audio minute for a focus group (6 people or less; good quality recording)
Please note, if the recording is difficult to hear or uses complex language / terminology, an extra 10p per minute is added. The higher rate will be discussed with you before any work commences.
