    Schmooze and Booze

    Helen Lewis

    Helen is a 23-year-old sub-editor on the Daily Mail, and a graduate of Oxford University and the City University Postgraduate Diploma in Journalism. In 2006 Helen created Schmooze & Booze. Schmooze & Booze is a regular networking event for young journalists and other media workers. She wondered how it was that all middle-aged journalists knew each other and so the first Schmooze & Booze was held in August 2006 at the Commercial Tavern in the East End, the second in the Angelic pub in Islington in October, and the third at the Southwark Rooms in November.
