Award of Excellence: The Road Home
Long-haul trucker Bobby Coffey-Loy juggles driving up to 6,000 weekly miles while caring for his terminally ill mother. Seeking connection and understanding on the road, Bobby turns to the LGBTQ+ Trucking Network, a support system he founded with his husband Ricky. This piece was edited, produced, and filmed by Rhiannon Johnston. Two third-party sites, Common Ninja and Ricoh 360 Tours, were used to create the interactive number counters and the interactive map on the webpage.
