The Georgina Henry/ Women in Journalism award for Innovation

Written By Anna Wynn Roberts | Posted By Rachel Howells | Published 12th December 2014

This award is named after Georgina Henry in recognition of her history of finding and nurturing new talent and is presented annually.

The prize of £4000 will be used to fund either a project or pay for living expenses during work experience at two or more major national news organisations, arranged by the organisers.

Applicants can be any age, working in either print or multimedia.  The judges look for a flair for storytelling and evidence of innovation and/or impact.  The winner will demonstrate an identifiable voice and flair for a specific subject.

Georgina Henry, who passed away in February 2014, was a founding member of Women in Journalism as well as former deputy editor of the Guardian and head of Guardian.co.uk.

Keep an eye on the Women in Journalism website for news of previous winners and the annual deadline for entries. The deadline has been in February and the awards ceremony in March for the last few years.

The award, for women only, requires the submission of three examples of  work from the previous 12  months to [email protected] plus an 800-word pitch for an ongoing journalistic project, explaining what stage it is at, and how it is likely to proceed. The judges can also nominate candidates.
