A place for digital confidence, creativity and community support

The Badger’s Stripes helps people, community groups and organisations become more confident using digital, telling their stories and communicating with the people they want to reach.

The idea is simple: digital should help people connect, not replace the human side of communication.

Whether you’re learning how to create better content, trying to tell your story, working out why your communication isn’t reaching the right people, or need someone dependable to help deliver a defined project, the aim is always the same:

Make things clearer, more human and more effective.


Technology is useful. People are what make it work.

AI and digital tools can make things quicker and easier. They have their place. But they shouldn’t become the whole answer.

If everyone is producing the same generic posts, graphics and AI-generated content, the organisations that stand out will be the ones that still show real people, real personality and real stories.

The Badger’s Stripes is about helping people use digital confidently without losing that human connection.

Your audience isn’t looking for more content. They’re looking for something worth connecting with.


About Rich

Hi, I’m Rich.

I have over 20 years’ experience working across technology, communication, project delivery and digital transformation, alongside years of creating my own video content, livestreams and online communities.

I’ve learned how to communicate in very different environments – from professional projects to community organisations and my own YouTube and social media channels.

But I’ve also learned that confidence doesn’t come from having the perfect equipment or knowing every new platform. It comes from understanding what you’re trying to achieve, knowing who you’re talking to and having the confidence to put yourself out there. That’s what I want to help other people do.

I have a background in technology, communication, project delivery and digital content creation. Over the years I’ve become increasingly passionate about helping people, community groups, and organisations feel more confident using digital tools, video and storytelling to communicate and connect online.

What I’m particularly interested in

  • Helping people become more confident using digital and video
  • Helping organisations tell their stories in a human way
  • Understanding audiences, platforms and the best ways to reach them
  • Helping people communicate with more personality and confidence
  • Supporting community groups and organisations to make better use of the content they already have
  • Providing practical, dependable support when a defined project needs delivering

The Badger’s Stripes brings those interests together through workshops, webinars, videos and community-focused digital storytelling projects designed to encourage confidence, participation and creativity online.
