My father, Nick Cater, who has died aged 69 shortly after suffering a stroke, lived a life dedicated to journalism – both at the Guardian and as a freelance – focusing on African humanitarian crises and environmental issues.
Nick was the chief media officer for the charity event Sport Aid, held in 1986 and 1988, and wrote at length on Sudanese and Ugandan humanitarian issues in the 1980s and 90s.
