"Pippa Crerar, the Guardian's political editor, won Political Journalist of the Year, for work including an exclusive in 2025 on Downing Street rethinking winter fuel payment cuts after Labour's losses in local elections. Simon Hattenstone, a prominent features writer for the Guardian, scooped Broadsheet Feature Writer of the Year. His moving account of the demise of gifted musician Joe Black, who was badly let down by his homeless hostel, was highlighted at the awards."
"Malak A Tantesh's harrowing report of her two years in besieged Gaza, where she shared her experience of living with perpetual fear and uncertainty in what she described as a war that became a gateway to hell, won her the Young Journalist of the Year. Tantesh regularly reported from Gaza for the Guardian in the aftermath of the 7 October attack, providing a vital and rare insight at a time when international journalists were mostly banned from Gaza."
"Other Guardian winners included data projects editor Pamela Duncan, who won Data Journalist of the Year for her investigation into how everyday Facebook networks fuel right-wing ideas, and Saturday magazine's Charlotte Edwardes, who went home with the Broadsheet Interviewer of the Year award. The Guardian's podcast team won News Podcast of the Year for Missing in the Amazon, which investigated the disappearance and murder of British journalist Dom Phillips and Brazilian indigenous expert Bruno Pereira in the remote Javari Valley in 2022."
"The Guardian also won Broadsheet Front Page of the Year for American Dread. Daily Newspaper of the Year was won by The Times. The awards celebrate the best journalism across all news media publishers distributing in the UK."
