We are saddened to hear of the death from cancer of Charlie Hunt. Charlie was a former trustee of The Richard Dimbleby Cancer Fund, and a huge supporter of the charity. His enthusiasm and determination to get involved made a huge difference. Our thoughts are with his family ❤️

#OnThis Day in 1913: War correspondent Richard Dimbleby was born. A trusted BBC voice, he covered some of the most momentous WWII stories as well as moments of national ceremony and pageantry, and was later known as, 'the voice of the nation'.

He died before I was born, but apparently never talked about it afterwards. I first heard this on a scratched record in my teens. An extraordinary piece of writing.
75 years ago the BBC's Richard Dimbleby was the first broadcaster to report from the liberation of Belsen. His 10 minute report is an extraordinary historic act of journalism as witnessing. Listen to the way he uses 'the simple horrible facts' #Belsen bbc.co.uk/archive/richard-di…
