John Schofield Trust
The John Schofield Trust was set up by the friends and family of the journalist John Schofield who was killed whilst working in Croatia on the BBC’s World Tonight programme. The Trust set out to create a lasting memorial to John’s work and character by supporting new journalists. Today we are campaigning to unlock social mobility within news rooms.
