Nick Underdown
Chief Reporter

Nick is a professional journalist and researcher. As a law graduate of Edinburgh University, his first experience in journalism was reporting for the Arran Banner during the summer of 2002. Two years later he undertook an MA in international journalism at City University, London. Since then, he has worked in a range of research roles and freelanced mainly for Ethical Corporation - a magazine providing news, comment and analysis on global issues of corporate social responsibility.

He is keen to understand the role and impacts of businesses at the community level – and his other research interests include mass surveillance, digital rights, ethical consumerism and environmental issues.

Passionate about the internet's potential to assist a new and more participative citizen journalism, he is determined to make sure The Arran Voice will give strength to the many voices of the island.

In his spare time he likes to play football, climb mountains, watch films and meet up with his pals.
