Today's front page is a story that has been featured right across the Newsquest Media Group portfolio from group editor Nigel Burton who has courageously spoken out on his son's battle with cancer. On a personal level, having worked with Nigel every day since I returned to Newsquest in 2023, I was constantly amazed that he kept working through this period, logging in from the hospital ward, cracking on with pages in between appointments. Parenthood is, as it is, a full-time job often juggled with a full-time job and I can't comprehend just how intense this period must have been for the entire family. This month, Newsquest announced Teenage Cancer Trust as its official charity partner for 2025, and this piece excellently details the incredible work they do with our young cancer survivors across the UK. Hopefully this partnership will shine a light on the stories and increase awareness - and revenue - for this worthy good cause.

Thanks Rich, I couldn't have done what I did without a great team of people around me. Your help was invaluable and I owe all of you a huge thanks.
