The industry event raises £5,641.65 for our work.
The Rory Peck Trust was presented with a cheque for £5,641.65 yesterday by the
News Awards and their sponsor, Fuji Film UK.
The donation was raised by the event's prize draw on 29th April at London's Lancaster hotel.
A big thank you to the News Awards for making us their chosen charity for 2015, and to everyone who donated on the night. This is a significant contribution to our work and provides a real boost to the assistance we can provide to freelance journalists in crisis.
Thank you! We are absolutely delighted.
