Global media leaders will debate the most pressing issues facing journalism and truth-telling at a summit held in memory of our late alumnus Sir Harry Evans.

Congratulations to alumna Gabby Logan OBE (College of St Hild and St Bede, Law, 1992-1995), who has won ‘Presenter of the Year’ at the Sports Journalism Association British Sports Journalism Awards. The accolade is primarily for her for her work on British football show Match of the Day, which won ‘Best Television Show’ at the same awards.
