| - The Society of Editors is an industry body for around 400 UK national and regional media editors, representatives and organisations. The society has an elected president, chair and board of directors. The society was formed by a merger of the Guild of Editors and the Association of the British Editors in April 1999 and its founding executive director was Bob Satchwell, former long-standing editor of the Cambridge News. The society's current executive director, appointed in July 2021, is Dawn Alford. The society has a history of campaigning on behalf of freedom of expression in the UK and beyond. And in 2019, it celebrated 20 years of campaigning in the name of a free press, freedom of speech and the public's right to know. The aim of the Society is to safeguard the universal right to freedom of expression, to advocate the importance of an active and trusted news media in a democratic society, to guard the public's right to know, protect press and broadcasting freedom, encourage diversity and inclusion across all sectors of the media and to promote high editorial standards. The society's annual high-profile media conferences have hosted government ministers and industry representatives from across the national, regional, broadcast, digital and online media and its National and Regional Press Awards ceremonies have long-championed the quality journalism produced by national and regional journalists across the UK. The society strives to serve its members and the wider industry through lobbying, campaigning and facilitating professional development through events and activities that meet the changing needs of the news media industry in the UK. In 2022, the Society of Editors launched its diversity, inclusion and belonging hub which highlights good practices and shares practical initiatives that promote diversity and inclusion in journalism.
