About Me
My name is Matt Senior and I currently work as a reporter for CambridgeshireLive.
I first joined Reach PLC back in June 2021 as a trainee reporter for NorfolkLive. At the time, the site didn’t exist, but I was part of the team that helped build up content and write stories in preparation for its official launch a month later on Norfolk Day 2021 (July 27). Once the site was up and running, I began covering stories and features from all across the county, ranging from human interest stories, inquests, reviews, crime and court pieces and much more. There were also days where I went out on patch doing Facebook Lives and interviews with public figures, such as councillors, ministers, MPs, businesspeople and local residents among others.
In July 2022, I moved over to CambridgeshireLive where I covered much of the same type of stories as before, just in a different county. A lot of stories I have written have also gone in the print edition, Cambridge News, as well as on national sites such as the Mirror, the Express and the Daily Star.
This website contains 12 pieces I have written during the couple of years I have worked for NorfolkLive and CambridgeshireLive, covering a wide range of formats and types of story:
Some of the pieces on this blog include examples of:
Hard news and live blogs
Court reporting and inquests
Audio visual content
Writing in a variety of different styles
Audience engagement
I have also written a wide range of other articles which can be found on my MuckRack page in the contact section
