MyDaily.co.uk is a women's fashion and beauty website run by AOL, and from its launch in September 2010 until April 2011 I acted as health editor.

Prior to that I blogged for thatsfit.co.uk, another AOL website that was eventually wound down after the launch of MyDaily.

The Arthritic Association is a charity aimed at people suffering from arthritis who are interested in a natural, diet-based approach to managing their condition.
