This is the website of the British journalist, Tim Dawson. I am the author of several books, write regularly for national newspapers and magazines and produce audio visual packages for a variety of organisations. For twenty years, I wrote weekly for The Sunday Times and was a section editor on that paper for over a decade. I am always looking for new outlets for my work as a reporter, editor and writer.I have also, both now and in the past, undertaken work as a photographer, trainer, speaker, conference chair and facilitator, a PR, a copywriter, and an event and project manager.
I am currently the president of the National Union of Journalists, having served nearly twenty years on its national executives and held various leadership positions in the organisation during that period. I write about NUJ-related matters here. In this capacity, I regularly speak at major public events including recent meetings at the Palace of Westminster, the European Parliament and the Trades Union Congress.
