The Trust runs #NewsroomsForAll, its first public fundraising campaign, and raises over £25,000 allowing it to increase the number of aspiring and early career journalists it can help
The Trust runs its first Radio 4 Appeal, championed by Jon Snow, who said:
“John Schofield was a young journalist I worked with at Channel 4. Because I knew him, and I’m committed to diversity in journalism, I am a strong supporter of the Trust.”
The Trust’s first mentoring scheme for undergraduates opens, with students based at the University of Northampton, Liverpool John Moores, Central Lancashire, Dublin City, Edinburgh Napier and the University of Kent.
