'GiJ Presents' Speaker Series

  • Charlotte Forrester

The 'GiJ Presents' speaker series was led by journalists from VICE, gal-dem, Bristol Live and Channel 4 as well as freelancers who generously shared their time and knowledge with attendees. They covered topics such as breaking into the industry, being an LGBTQ+ journalist, freelancing, covering sensitive topics and political journalism. We sold out five out of six of the events and every single one was insightful and inspiring. Thank you to all of the journalists who spoke and to everyone who attended. We're also very grateful to City Ventures for supporting us so that we could make these events free for attendees to increase accessibility. Both Charlotte Forrester and Isabelle Gray loved co-organising and co-hosting all these events. Fingers crossed for round two soon!
