Residents in Johnson Fold are invited to get involved in running their own
community radio station.
Local volunteers are now needed to be radio presenters, producers, and
writers for a radio drama, in preparation for Johnson Fold FM, set to hit
the airwaves in April.
The event will be a four-day, 24-hour, radio broadcast, including a showcase
event open to the public.
Johnson Fold FM is a joint project, managed by Bolton at Home and funded by
Bolton Council.
Setting up a community radio station in Johnson Fold follows on from the
success of previous projects in Hall i’th’ Wood and Westhoughton, where
community radio broadcasts brought communities closer together and offered
new skills and development opportunities.
Anyone interested in taking part in Johnson Fold FM should contact Danielle
Porter at Bolton at Home, on 01204 335560, or via email to
danielle.porter@boltonathome.org.uk.
