Calling all Members: Nominate Winners for the Frontline Club Awards 2012

The Frontline Club Awards for excellence in journalism aim to recognise recognise journalistic integrity, courage and independence of spirit, and include the work of freelances. For the first time the Frontline Club Awards will be divided into four categories: Print | Broadcast | Photojournalism | Tribute

Now is your opportunity to nominate the best journalism you have seen this year in each of these categories. Nominations should be sent to [email protected] by Friday 21st September 2012.
 
Please indicate the category of your nomination in the title of the email. You will need to provide the names of the journalist(s) who created the work and the broadcaster, publication or website which disseminated it. Please also send links to the piece of journalism you wish to nominate if available, or provide the work in an attachment. Work nominated should be from the period October 2011 to October 2012. It can be from any country and cover any topic, but must possess the values of journalistic integrity, courage and independent spirit that the Awards seek to recognise.
 
The Frontline Club Tribute Award (formerly the Frontline Club Memorial Tribute Award) acknowledges lifetime achievements or work that has not received the acclaim it deserves and is judged on a lifetime of work rather than a single contribution.
 
The awards will be presented at the Frontline Club's Awards Ceremony on 25th October 2012. Winners receive lifetime membership of the Frontline Club, a prize from our sponsors, a certificate, and their names will be engraved on a plaque in the main clubroom.
 
We are also inviting Club Members to nominate beneficiaries of the Fixers' Fund, which covers a wide range of acute needs in addition to supporting families in times of bereavement. Please send your recommendations to Flora Carmichael: [email protected].
