[PRESS RELEASE – 23RD JULY 2024]

Fiona Scoble Joins Sweet Cherry as Head of Editorial!

Sweet Cherry Publishing, Leicester’s very own award-winning children’s publisher, has welcomed Fiona Scoble to the team as its new Head of Editorial.

Scoble joins the cherry tree after almost 9 years spent at Nosy Crow, with her most recent position being Senior Editor.

Now, she’s excited to join the SCP team on its journey to a more accessible, diverse and, of course, fun publishing landscape.

Scoble said: “ I’m thrilled to be joining the hugely talented Sweet Cherry team. I’ve long admired their exciting publishing and their commitment to making great stories accessible to all children. I’m very much looking forward to working with their brilliant authors and illustrators and to bringing new titles to their innovative, fun and child-centric list.”

The Sweet Cherry team is equally as excited, with Sanjee de Silva, Publisher, saying: “We’re ecstatic to have Fiona joining us from Nosy Crow. She is a cherry through-and-through – she’s enthusiastic, she brings fresh ideas, and she really knows her stuff! I for one cannot wait to see what magic she rustles up.”

Scoble is taking the reins from Sam Robinson, who moved on from SCP earlier in the year but is continuing to watch and support the cherries from afar.
