Sub's anti-bullying website impresses awards judges

A Yorkshire Evening Post sub-editor has been highly commended in the Beacon Fellowship Awards 2003.

Liz Carnell is the director of the Harrogate-based charity Bullying Online which she founded with her son John in 1999.

With almost 800 nominations, a commendation was a welcome result for the Bullying Online team.

The charity, which helps parents and children deal with school bullying through its internet website bullying.co.uk has picked up a clutch of awards this year, winning the national BT eWell-Being Awards, the regional finals of the National E-Commerce Awards for the second year running and being a national finalist in the Guardian Charity Awards and a regional finalist in the Broadband Britain Challenge.

Bullying Online is currently funded by the DfES and supported the launch of the DfES anti-bullying charter in London last week.

The charity is to go “on the road” next year to publicise its work at a further eight DfES regional conferences.
