Since 2011, student reporters have been trained by professionals from Sky News, BBC, ITV, CBS News America, and leading UK newspapers. Now, Good News Rooms are expanding across the UK — and they’re easy to set up and run.

Why It Works

Inspired by BBC legend Jill Dando, students learn to report with positivity, kindness, humility, and a smile. They become part of a global network of reporters from the UK to Malawi, contributing to a worldwide movement of young people changing the news.
