Sports fans generally root for the underdog, unless their team, a personal favourite or a bet is involved. Think of Coco Gauff at Wimbledon, Ireland’s Test cricketers humbling England for two days at Lord’s, Shane Lowry storming The Open. Given their opportunities, they all rocked the established, changed thinking and enriched an industry. The Journalism Diversity Fund, by backing the unheralded and those who don’t conform to pre-conceptions, has done pretty much the same.
The National Council for the Training of Journalists has appointed four new trustees who will work with the board and executive team to help take the charity to the next stage of its development.
Bursary recipients, mentors, sponsors and supporters were in attendance at the NCTJ’s equality, diversity and inclusion conference at Reuters today to celebrate the work of the Journalism Diversity Fund (JDF).
