Celebrating Success

This report, like so many things we take for granted, has changed in its key messages since we have all been affected by the fall out of the Covid-19 virus. We started our fiftieth year in good order and even better spirits with over a 120 members celebrating the landmark anniversary with a musical appreciation of the past five decades – A Musical Construction – which offered a rare and possibly the last opportunity for younger members to meet some of the surviving early trail blazing founders,

Perhaps the message. received from Brian Daniels, chairman in 1982 while heading the corporate affairs team at Redland, best sums up the feeling on the night: “It is wonderful that IBP has reached its fifth decade, As a member 50 years ago I am amazed how the various boards and committees have made IBP into the highly professional organisation it is today.”

50th Anniversary discussion – ‘Can Traditional Media cut it with Generation Z’

IBP and FTI Consulting staged the highly successful `Can Traditional Media cut it with Generation Z’ as part of IBP’s  50th anniversary celebrations, with the ambition of understanding how traditional media brands are winning new followers.

Chaired by Giles Barrie, Managing Director, FTI Real Estate team and former editor of Property Week introduced the Guest of Honour, Times Business Editor and former Property Week reporter Richard Fletcher and a panellist for the evening seminar held at FTI Consulting’s City of London office and attended by 100 guests. Other panellists, representing a new crop of journalist and communicators included Josh Spencer, Social Media Journalist, The Economist, City University graduate 2018, Ella Jessel, senior reporter, The Architects’ Journal and IBP Young Journalist 2018 together with IBP Young Communicator 2018 and FTI Director, Ellie Perham-Marchant explained how they are appealing to newer readers through a range of digital strategies, including Snapchat and Instagram combined with good-old fashioned news-getting and investigative journalism. This in turn poses new challenges for the communications world, as they interact with journalists posting on new platforms in real time.

The event was recorded and is available on the IBP website: https://ibp.org.uk/videogallery/can-traditional-media-cut-it-with-gen-z/ 

Futures Group – ‘Writing brilliant features with the FT and Wired’

The final Futures Group of 2019 took place on 9th December. Titled ‘Writing brilliant features with the FT and Wired’, the event was held in collaboration with City University and sponsored by Trilogy Property, hosted at their recently completed development, Republic, at East India Dock.

The event proved to be highly popular, with over 150 attendees ranging from students from City University to editors and journalists from built environment B2B titles together with architecture and property correspondents from the national media

Prior to the presentation, attendees had the opportunity to network and it was great to see so many new faces. For many of the student attendees, this event was the first time they had come across IBP.

The proceedings were kicked off by Nick Duxbury, Group Creative Lead at Redwood BBDO, followed by a warm welcome from the event host, Robert Wolstenholme, Founder and CEO, Trinity Property.

Three top feature writers were on the panel: Emma Jacobs, Features Writer at The FT, Matt Reynolds, Science Editor at Wired and Martin Fletcher, Freelance Features Writer for the Times, FT, Telegraph and New Statesman. Each speaker gave practical advice on feature writing and highlighted why some of their most well-read articles were particularly successful. This was followed by a Q&A from a highly engaged audience, and many stayed back afterwards to ask for further advice from the panel.

The event was recorded and is available on the IBP website: https://ibp.org.uk/videogallery/ibp-futures-group-2019/ 

Journalism Awards

We ended 2019 with an outstanding crop of awards, presented by Nick Ferrari, for both Journalists and PR Practitioners in a special joint event to reflect and celebrate our memberships best work. The full report can be found on the homepage with links to the awards bulletin. Special awards for Outstanding Contribution, over their careers, were presented to veteran editor, journalist and author Peter Bill and North West PR guru Clare Moody, bringing a very successful and enjoyable year to a close.

First Futures Group Webinar

In 2020 we held our first webinar, in association with City, University of London, with an outstanding panel of national journalists on the fallout from the Covid-19 Government briefings. They shared their candid views on government press officers toeing the departmental ministers line to hide the truth from “prying” journalists: https://mediaspace.city.ac.uk/playlist/dedicated/1_glbdffox

As each of us strive to regain a semblance of normal life and rebuild relationships IBP is working on this year’s journalism awards. Having celebrated 50 years of activity our focus continues to be to support journalists and good journalism. Now, more than ever, members should get involved and shape the organisation for the future needs of the built environment media and communications profession as we all emerge from isolation and plan for future growth. IBP’s clear message to members is to support each other by Celebrating Success.

I can only end by echoing Brian Daniel’s comments, I am amazed at how the members of the board continue to work tirelessly to encourage, support and reward outstanding journalism and communications in the built environment. Equally we are fortunate that our sponsors appreciate the role of IBP in delivering the annual awards and for their support in hosting categories.

Architecture Writer of the Year

Frances Williams, Architects’ Journal, is a journalist with a distinctive voice who writes with style and confidence. This submission is packed with closely-observed details achieving an easy balance between technicalities, interviews and personal observation. Each feature demonstrates a sharp critical eye, making the reader almost feel as if they are at the scene. This writer highlights the importance of recycling buildings of merit, bringing historic architecture to life.

Construction/Infrastructure Writer of the Year

Thomas Lane, Building, produced three well-structured articles; packed with detail and delivered at pace.

The piece on ‘The drive for green machines’ being very much of our time, benefitted from in-depth research and close attention to detail.

The highly topical piece ‘What are we going to do about concrete’– was well structured and informative, drawing high praise from the judges.

The ‘Cornish’ piece completed a trilogy of interesting and insightful articles – which, the judges agreed, were simply outstanding.

News Reporter of the Year

Jack Simpson – Inside Housing, entered three powerful, investigative and still hugely topical fire safety stories that lead the way and were followed up by major national media coverage, bringing them to the wider audience they deserve.

Feature Writer of the Year

Martina Lees, The Sunday Times, entered three powerful and empathetic articles each engaging and insightful.

The comprehensive and hard-hitting piece on ‘Families trapped in fire risk flats they cannot sell’ – (appearing on the front page of a national newspaper) helped to further expose the true scale of the fall-out from the Grenfell fire – in the judges view an outstanding piece of journalism.

The piece ‘Footing the bill for the cladding crisis’ was praised by the judges for its detailed research and heartfelt portrayal of the human as well as material cost of this continuing tragedy.

Business/Financial Journalist of the Year

David Price, Construction News, submissions showed his ability to break scoops and identify trends. The variety highlighted his breadth. His explanation of why the pandemic had failed to produce a surge in bankruptcies – but why it would – was timely and analytical. His writing is crisp, tight, and had impact.

Housing/Residential Journalist of the Year

Peter Apps, Inside Housing, has a talent for finding fresh angles on big national stories but also unearthing stories on subjects away from the limelight and flagging up the wider implications for the housing sector.

New Journalist of the Year

Jennifer Hahn, Dezeen, delivered three very different stories, demonstrating versatility, maturity and an ability to dig out a story and raise awareness on subjects of importance. The writer avoids swallowing the PR line and digs deeper giving critical, balanced, provocative and revealing pieces. Design that produces carbon-neutral buildings runs through this submission.

Scoop of the Year

Martina Lees, The Sunday Times, winning article was an incredibly well researched piece which for the first time quantified the scale of the cladding crisis and how it was impacting 1.5 million households from across all tenures. It was a great piece of journalism and not surprisingly the journalists coverage of the issue has been frequently cited in parliament as the nightmare rolls on.

Editorial Brand of the Year

Winner: Architects’ Journal

On the foundations of its thoughtful, well-written and often brave B2B journalism, the AJ speaks with a passionate and eloquent editorial voice. The magazine and website offer complementary experiences, powered by clear and well executed editorial goals. The brand provokes and promotes its principles beyond its core audience, as is exemplified by the impressive cut-through of its ongoing Retrofirst campaign.

Highly commended: Inside Housing

Inside Housing’s trump card is its fantastic journalism, which displays campaigning zeal in a world where investigative journalism is a rare commodity. It provides its target audience with a wealth of information, and its relaunched “End our Cladding Scandal” campaign has successfully deployed this unparalleled specialist knowledge more widely.

IBP Journalist of the Year

Winner: Martina Lees, The Sunday Times

When a skilled reporter on a leading publication tackles a big subject, they deserve to be considered for a major award. The plight of flat-owners facing huge bills because of dangerous cladding is a massive story. The Sunday Times has the scale to present that story powerfully. But it requires a journalist who can match the owners’ massive problems and the magnitude of the newspaper’s circulation to do justice to the gravity of this calamity.

Martina Lees rose to that challenge. Indeed, splashing her reports across the front of the paper and on inside pages were key to turning a mere story into a major scandal. A market-leading Sunday paper may have the resources to allow such comprehensive reporting, but that is nothing unless the writer can make the most of such facilities.

Martina delved deeply into the detail of a national disgrace. By interviewing dozens of victims she accumulated the colour that made her features so compelling. And by analysing data she acquired the facts that demonstrate the effect the cladding fears are having on the property market. It is a winning combination of skills: she broke the news and could paint the wider picture.
