I still remember some mug pushing a bike around Accrington advertising "Hyndburn Life" website which had less members than fingers on my hands |
there is funding available from several sources including lottery funding, for such ventures as it benefits target groups and rebuilds communities. there is a lot of interest in community radio and media projects. and as i say this is still in the ideas stage however i do have several media and community engagement contacts who have already pledged their assistance with a project such as this. as for advertising it well how did the bee do it or 2br (originally an offshoot of burnley hospital radio) the power of the people is a wonderful thing
