The Hurricane Melissa Relief website is now operational.
Rebuilding Lives. Restoring Hope.
Hurricane Melissa is a powerful Category 5 storm posing a serious threat to the lives and livelihoods of Jamaicans. In its aftermath, recovery will take every helping hand.

One stands and we all stand
One falls and we all fall
We are Manchester City
And we stand tall
To celebrate Black History Month, we commissioned a poem by Lemn Sissay OBE to reflect on the club’s journey from Maine Road to today, celebrating the influential black figures who have helped bring us here.

Statement on behalf of the Family of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
“Today, our family has learned that President Trump has ordered the declassification of the remaining records pertaining to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, his brother Robert F. Kennedy, and our father, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
For us, the assassination of our father is a deeply personal family loss that we have endured over the last 56 years. We hope to be provided the opportunity to review the files as a family prior to its public release.”
At this time, the King Family is not taking any interviews as they await further information.
At the John Schofield Trust, we know that talent isn’t confined to the South or London.
That’s why for this year's @BigGive, your donations—matched pound for pound—will fund regional meet-ups, masterclasses, and opportunities outside the capital.
These events ensure that aspiring journalists across the UK and Ireland, no matter where they’re from, can access the connections, mentorship, and resources they need to succeed.

Help us bring these vital opportunities to more regions.

Very sorry to hear about the passing of our old label boss and collaborator, Quincy Jones. We were on his label Qwest for many years, he did a great remix of Blue Monday in 1988. We send all our condolences and thoughts to his family, he was a true legend!
#QuincyJones launched VIBE because it was the change he wanted to see. he wanted glorious and rigorous storytelling. he wanted depth of design and imagery. he wanted hip hop and the history of American Blackness that informed it to receive the credit it is due
Masterful musician and beautiful soul. Rest in peace and eternally grateful for seeing something in me and my brothers all those years ago. Playing at your birthday party with @EzraCollective was an opportunity that changed our lives for ever. Rest in peace Quincy Jones 🕊️
