The Journalists’ Charity was founded by Charles Dickens in 1864 to help journalists and their dependants going through tough times. More than a hundred and fifty years later, the organisation remains committed to providing advice and support to individuals working across the industry, at a time when journalism has arguably never been more important to society.

Notes to the above:

Online donation figures include all donations made via this donate page to The Newspaper Press Fund and includes any Gift Aid reclaimed on behalf of eligible organisations.

Offline donations include cash, cheques and any other donations paid directly to the fundraising organisation. This offline donation total is updated periodically by the Tribute Guardian in conjunction with the fundraising organisation.

The "total raised" figure shown above therefore reflects all monies raised from all sources, both online and offline. Thank you for your support of this Tribute Fund.
