“Ever since I launched Women in Journalism in 1994 it has been at the forefront of the industry. Over those 17 years, women journalists from all over the UK, have joined in their hundreds. Every level of entrant, from well established national newspaper editors, to the newest freelance have attended WIJ talks, lectures, debates, discussions and many other events. The organisation has a history of encouraging fairness, whether by teaching women how to ask for more money, to making sure that females in the business have mentors and advisors that they can turn to for the help whilst doing this complex, and occasionally dangerous, job. Updating the website should continue to aid women wherever and however they seek to report and write.”
