Charlene White | Speaker Biography

About Charlene White

First Black woman to present ITV News at Ten
Creator and host of 'IRL with Team Charlene'
Award-winning journalist and broadcaster on ITV
Charlene White is a pioneering journalist, author, and broadcaster. She began presenting ITV News in 2008 and, in 2014, became the first Black woman to present ITV News at Ten.

Charlene is on the presenting team of ITV's daytime show Loose Women. The show's first all-black panel special, which Charlene helmed, won a Royal Television Society award and was nominated for a BAFTA.

She co-hosted, alongside Sir Trevor McDonald, the notable documentary Has George Floyd Changed Britain? Exploring the impact George Floyd's death had on people living in the UK, she hosted her primetime ITV documentary, Empire's Child, looking at where her family sits in the British Empire.

Charlene took part in the twenty-second series of I'm A Celebrity . . . Get Me Out of Here! and has toured with Loose Women Live.

'IRL with Team Charlene' is an ITV series Charlene created herself, offering a mix of short films, animation and music dealing with racism in the UK and how it impacts the lives of young people. It won a Royal Television Society award for Best Children's Programme explaining racism and Black Lives Matter to children.

Charlene also uses her platform to mentor aspiring journalists and work alongside various organisations to achieve better representation of women and minorities in the industry.

As a writer, Charlene is a regular columnist for the iPaper and has written for the New York Post.

No Place Like Home is Charlene's critically acclaimed debut non-fiction book, published in September 2024. Alongside her personal story and understanding of home as a Jamaican Londoner, she interviews eight individuals who give their perspectives on home shaped by myriad events, from difficult family situations to desperate political upheaval and war.

Charlene is available for hosting & facilitating fireside chats and panels and can speak on a wide range of insightful topics.
