The UN have reported more conflicts around the world today than at any time since the end of the Second World War and more journalists lost their lives in 2024 since records began more than thirty years ago.

There's never been a more important time to support freelance journalists around the world, who risk so much in order to bring us the truth on the ground.

We're fundraising for the Rory Peck Trust which supports freelance journalists globally with crisis funding, professional therapy and safety training.

Thank you for supporting our race efforts and media freedom.
