Digital comms for small teams with big hearts.
Sounds Local helps communities and cultural organisations make colourful web & social content, and puts its profits into projects that connect people in-person.
Let's get to work
Hiya 👋 I’m Mark
I’ve been building websites since the turn of the century, and producing podcasts since before they were cool… and long after.
I host a hit podcast and a TikTok series, I’ve worked with BT Sport, the BBC, Amazon, Mozilla and more… and I once went semi-viral by duetting with the voice of the parrot in Aladdin.
I do this…
Web design & development
Your website is your organisation's online identity, and it sets the tone for what working with you feels like.
Podcast development & production
Build affinity and trust with your stakeholders by creating compelling long-form content.
Website support & maintenance
Get website monitoring, testing, maintenance, and support from someone you know on a first-name basis.
…for people like this…

…so I can do this
The Internet is a powerful way to connect people who wouldn’t otherwise meet. But if we don’t balance time on Zoom and social media with real-world interaction – especially with people who don’t look like us – our worldview gets smaller.
Sounds Local is a Community Interest Company, meaning the profit it makes is put back into the community to fund projects that get people off screens and out into the world, with all its messy unpredictability.
