Total Politics Group is proud to announce the launch of the Lord Cormack Fellowship, a new paid, month-long editorial and political journalism fellowship with The House magazine, Parliament’s independent and cross-party publication.
The fellowship is named in honour of Lord Patrick Cormack, the late politician, author and journalist who co-founded The House. Generously supported by his family, the scheme reflects Lord Cormack’s deep-rooted values of editorial impartiality, cross-party collaboration, and respect for the institution of Parliament.
Over the course of the month, the fellow will receive hands-on experience in journalism, politics, and publishing, gaining exposure to all aspects of The House magazine’s editorial, creative and commercial operations. This includes structured modules in:
“We are delighted to launch this programme in memory of Lord Cormack, whose contribution to both Parliament and The House magazine was profound,” said Mark Wallace, CEO of Total Politics Group. “This fellowship represents our commitment to creating new opportunities for the next generation of journalists and nurturing aspiring talent in political media. I’m very much looking forward to seeing who applies and to working with the successful Fellow.”
Editor in Chief of The House magazine Alan White said “The House has a long track record in producing the great political journalists of tomorrow, and I’m very pleased that we have secured support to run this scheme for years to come. My thanks to the many individuals who have volunteered their time to help.”
Richard Cormack said: “Throughout his long parliamentary career my father, Lord Cormack, was a steadfast believer in equality of opportunity. I’m delighted to help the House magazine in providing a fellowship that will be accessible to all, and very grateful to the Royal Foundation of St Katharine for their generous support.”
The Lord Cormack Fellowship is open to individuals over the age of 18 and has been designed to be fully accessible. The selected fellow will be paid the London Living Wage, with accommodation provided by the Royal Foundation of St Katharine for those requiring it.
This initiative builds on The House magazine’s reputation as the essential platform at the heart of Westminster – providing trusted political reporting and a unique window into Parliament since its founding in 1976.
