Today I’ve officially been at @SWNS for a year – time flies! So, here’s a cliched thread of a few of my articles which have ended up in the national newspapers:
And one last one - my coverage of the trial of Robert Prussak, an American pilot who was cleared of abducting, kidnapping, and sexually assaulting a nine-year-old French girl, was published by The Times, The Telegraph, and MailOnline. thetimes.com/uk/crime/articl…
My piece on savvy Ascot locals who make thousands selling flipflops to racegoers appeared in The Mirror, The Sun, and The Daily Star. dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-…
My interview with a mum whose baby caught measles at the height of the UK outbreak was published in The Mirror and The Sun, and prompted a follow-up by Sky News. mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/mu…

Last week I had my last day @NationalWorld. I’m very proud of the reporting I’ve done over the past near year and a half, and am grateful to the wonderful people I’ve worked with - particularly @RalphBlackburn, who has taught me so much & supported me the whole way through. (1/2)
Tomorrow is my first day as a News Reporter @SWNS, and I’m super excited to get started! (2/2)
Last week I spoke to Helen Smith, whose daughter Lily started Year 10 in September. Sadly, her first half-term was nothing like she envisaged, as her school - St Leonard's in Durham - found itself unable to open due to RAAC. Here's what happened next: nationalworld.com/education/…
“With five insightful, clever, and thrilling 'vault' tracks, Taylor Swift takes the already impeccable 1989 to lofty new heights.”

Maureen Gilbert, 83, also tragically lost her life, after water from a burst riverbank flooded her home in Derbyshire. Her traumatised son Paul has told of how he found her body "floating in water". nationalworld.com/news/uk/st…
People in the UK drastically overestimate the number of asylum seekers coming to the country, a new study by @BritishRedCross has revealed. nationalworld.com/news/polit…
Despite these misunderstandings though, Red Cross' research also shows that the majority of Brits (87%) believe the UK should offer refuge to people fleeing war, conflict, and persecution. Meanwhile, nearly half (43%) of people say the UK should take "at least our fair share".
