Commemorating Barbara’s 60 years as a Soroptimist<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Barbara Bailey was a much loved member of our club who celebrated more than 60 years as a Soroptimist. Barbara left a legacy to the club, and in 2014 we decided to create a Journalism Award for a student from Nottingham Trent University who produced the best programme on women’s issues.<\/span><\/p>\n

The winner was Charlotte Bailey (no relation to Barbara), whose project \u2018No Pain, no Gain\u2019 concentrated on the problems of violence and perception experienced by the street workers of Nottingham.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>President Audrey presented the award to Charlotte when she returned to Nottingham for her graduation. Also in the picture is Dr Emma Hemmingway of Nottingham Trent University.<\/span><\/p>\n

The members of SI Nottingham thought that it was not often there was the opportunity to hear the opinions of women minorities, and Candice was to be congratulated on bringing their voice to our attention.<\/p>\n

Candice\u2019s article was published on the student journalism news site www.cbjspotlight.co.uk.<\/p>\n

PICTURE PERFECT: THE TRUTH BEHIND THE IMAGE<\/strong><\/h1>\n

As part of her final year project, Nottingham Trent Broadcast Journalism graduate Jorjah Langthorp investigated media pressure on young women and their self-image in her project: Picture Perfect: the truth behind the images. On her choice of topic Jorjah said “I look at how my 13 year old younger sister reacts to social media, as compared to myself not too long ago.\u00a0 The greater pressure is worrying<\/p>\n

Now the work has been selected by the members of Soroptimist International of Nottingham as their top piece of journalism created by students at the Centre for Broadcasting and Journalism at Nottingham Trent University2017\"Student<\/a><\/p>\n

This is the fifth year SI of Nottingham has awarded a prize to a student journalist for a 3rd<\/sup> year project raising awareness of women’s issues in the media. This adds to the Soroptimist’s goal of enabling women and girls to achieve their potential.<\/p>\n

\nSTUDENT JOURNALIST OF THE YEAR AWARD 2018<\/strong>
\nPREMATURE PARKINSON\u2019S<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Members of Soroptimist International of Nottingham voted Eve Gateshill\u2019s project on Early onset Parkinson\u2019s disease as their top piece of journalism created by students graduating this year from the Centre for Broadcasting and Journalism at Nottingham Trent University.
\nThis is the sixth year Soroptimist International of Nottingham has awarded a prize to a student journalist for a 3rd year project raising awareness of women\u2019s issues in the media. Helping student journalists start their careers with this recognition and funding ties in with one of the Soroptimist\u2019s goals: raising awareness of women\u2019s ability to achieve their individual and collective potential.
\nAs part of her final year project, Nottingham Trent Broadcast Journalism Student Eve investigated the effect of the rare condition of early onset Parkinson\u2019s disease on the lives of 3 women. On her choice of topic Eve said \u201cMy Grandpa had Parkinson\u2019s and this led me to look into the subject in more depth. I contacted the Parkinson\u2019s support group and they put me onto the three interviewees who formed the core of my presentation.
\nClub members thought this was an excellent project, looking at an unusual condition. Eve had a personal angle but also good research skills. The women were sensitively interviewed to bring out their great mental strength in living with their current condition and what lies ahead of them.\u201d<\/p>\n
