Story


Hi! My name is Nikita, I’m 22, I’m from Latvia and I love running! I’ve been working at the Rory Peck Trust for almost a year now and I’m really proud to have this opportunity to raise funds for the great work that RPT does.

The Rory Peck Trust is the only charity dedicated to the support, safety and welfare of freelance journalists worldwide. Telling the stories the world needs to hear can come at great risk to freelance journalists, many of whom have been seriously injured, threatened, imprisoned, detained, forced into exile or killed as a result of their work. We provide dedicated training and support through our Crisis, Recovery and Trauma Therapy Funds as well as specialist mental health and resilience skills training through our Resilience Programme.We are committed to supporting and protecting freelance journalists who uphold our democratic freedoms.Please support our work and freelance journalists worldwide, thank you.
