Vince Cable’s grandson is among the finalists in this year’s Amnesty Young Human Rights Reporter Awards.

Sixty finalists have been unveiled across four written categories and two photography categories after the competition saw 2,500 entries from almost 200 UK schools.

The awards are run by Amnesty International UK and supported by SecEd and the Guardian Teacher Network and the six age categories cover key stages 2 to 5.

Young people were asked to write an article or report of up to 500 words on a human rights-related issue, or to submit a photograph illustrating a human rights theme.

It is the first year the competition has had a photography element and photographic entries tackled topics such as bullying, prejudice, racism and homelessness.
