Without the generous support of the Canary Wharf Group, the YJA summer school would not be possible. It is held in the Canary Wharf Group’s impressive boardroom at One Canada Square – in London’s media heartland. Canary Wharf is a thriving and vibrant business district.

‘Canary Wharf is increasingly the workplace of some of Britain’s leading journalists, photographers and PR experts. So we have been very happy to support the YJA summer school along with our friends at the City of London Corporation and The Times. We hope that the school will help inspire the next generation of writers and broadcasters in one of Britain’s most important and growing business sectors.’
Howard Dawber, strategic advisor,
Canary Wharf Group

The Times is our media partner. Top Times journalists have run inspirational seminars and workshops at the YJA summer school, including Daniel Finkelstein, chief leader writer, and Tony Evans, football editor.

‘The Journalism Education team is passionate about creating opportunities for students and the summer school is a fantastic scheme to bring aspiring journalists together with established writers. We are delighted to have been involved in this great project.’
Anoushka Healy, Assistant Editor, Strategy & Development,
The Times
