Highly commended: Richard Gosnold's 'Apostate' sets out to explore the personal impact and aftermath for people leaving high-control religions, working with the charity Faith to Faithless across the UK and Ireland and celebrating individual resilience.

Highly Commended: Kat Wood, with the proposal 'A place beyond the fields' seeks to document women farmers in the North of England who have diversified into non-agricultural part-time jobs to sustain their land, highlighting the shifting realities and financial precariousness of modern farming.

Congratulations to Rebecca Conway, Richard Gosnold, Bethany Hobbs, Kadi Jatta, Leia Morrison and Kat Wood who are all shortlisted for the Rebecca Vassie Memorial Award 2025!

Ten years ago, we lost Beccy. It’s hard to believe it’s been a decade, and hard to know what to make of this calendar milestone – if anything. Our photography charity exists for the saddest of reasons.

We are delighted to announce that the sixth Rebecca Vassie Memorial Award is now open for entries, with a submission deadline of 31 March 2025. Head over to our website for all the details: rebeccavassietrust.org/2025/02/02/r...
