An award which recognises young journalists from diverse backgrounds is open for entries.

The GG2 Leadership Awards include a category for the Young Journalist of the Year, which is open to journalists from an ethnic minority who are under 30.

The award is sponsored by the Daily Mail which has offered a £500 bursary and the chance to carry out work experience at the paper for the winner.

There are 10 prizes in total to be handed out at the awards ceremony, which celebrate talent and diversity in multicultural Britain, and will take place in London in November.
