Thinking of applying for the Georgina Henry Award but not sure where to start?
Join us for a free online Q&A to find out more about the award, what makes a strong application and how to give your project the best chance of success. We’ll explain what the judges are looking for, talk through the application process and answer any questions you might have.
The Georgina Henry Award is an annual £4,000 prize supporting women journalists with innovative ideas and projects. Established in memory of Georgina Henry, former deputy editor of The Guardian and a past Chair of Women in Journalism, the award has helped launch and develop projects including the Scottish Beacon, Cheapskate and Journo Resources.
You don’t need to be a Women in Journalism member to apply, and applications are welcome from women working across all areas of journalism.
Whether you’ve already got a project in mind or are still developing your idea, this session will help you understand what’s involved and how to put together a compelling application.
There’ll be plenty of time for questions, and the session is free and open to everyone, including non-members.
Applications for the Georgina Henry Award close on Sunday 29 November.
