Posted on: June 18, 2020 by admin

TODAY IN THE SPOTLIGHT

In spite of this year’s difficult circumstances, the Society of Editors is determined that the hard work done by journalists in the regional and local press should not go unrecognised.

With the support of headline sponsor Facebook Journalism Project, over the past few weeks the Society has put in the daily spotlight the category shortlists and introducing the nominees and their work.

But with the winners of the Regional Press Awards for 2019 to be announced tomorrow, now is the time to meet the nominees for the hotly-contested Newspaper of the Year categories.  

Don’t forget to show your support for regional journalism by tagging us on Twitter @EditorsUK with the hashtag #LoveLocalMedia. 

Sign up here to our daily bulletin to continue to receive updates as they are posted.

With thanks to Camelot for their support for the Society of Editors since 2001, as they sponsor the following categories.
