Community Reporters

Typically, young people commit to attending weekly training and workshops during term time. Working with industry experienced professionals, participants will build their knowledge, creativity and confidence in these reporting, presenting and production skills:

– Research and plan stories.

– Interview local people, down the line and in the community.

– Record high-quality audio and video.

– Edit and produce digital content.

– Publish and broadcast their work on radio and online platforms.

Young reporters explore the topics and communities that inspire them, such as:

– Arts, culture and performance.

– Local music scenes.

– Sports clubs and youth activities.

– Environmental campaigns and activism.

– Local democracy and decision-makers.

– Positive intergenerational storytelling.

– Volunteering and community action.

All training takes place in a supportive, inclusive environment where creativity is encouraged, and no one is judged for trying something new.
