Lesley Hanes

Product Developer (and plain English champion), Statistics New Zealand

 

Lesley Hanes is one of the leaders of Statistics New Zealand's network of plain English champions. From her previous role as Editor, Lesley saw the need for a clearer way to communicate statistical information. She became a passionate advocate of plain English principles and focused on giving authors the skills and tools to apply them to their writing. 

In her current role as Product Developer, Lesley produces writing guides to help authors transform data into meaningful stories for New Zealanders. Lesley’s commitment to plain English initiatives was integral to Statistics NZ winning the Best Plain English Organisation award last year.
