Lewis Potts

I’m a final-year History student at University College London, with a passion for journalism, media, and the stories that shape public life. Having written and edited for both student and regional publications over the past four years, I bring a historian's instinct for evidence and accuracy to my reporting, believing that well-sourced and honest journalism is not just good practice but public responsibility.

With a particular interest in the standards and integrity that underpin the UK media landscape, I’m committed to work that informs rather than misleads, and that holds both institutions and narratives to account. I am currently open to all opportunities in journalism and communications as I complete my degree.
