The award ceremony was amazing. I have really enjoyed this whole process and was excited to be a winner. This experience has helped me to discover my strengths as a journalist and non-fiction writer and develop my skills in the industry.
Having the opportunity to attend the 2025 Young Reporters awards was such a proud moment for me, to be recognised alongside such talented people and a real reminder that young voices do have a place in the big league of journalism.
It's been amazing to participate in the Young Reporter scheme for the past few years, and I'm definitely going to miss it. It's made such a difference to my writing and also to my confidence; finding a quote for each article means going out of my comfort zone to talk to people about their experiences.
The Awards Ceremony at the Sir David Bell Building highlighted the diverse skills, experiences, and attributes of the talented young reporters representing schools across the UK.
