Would you like free speech based content for your community station?

The co-operative membership commissioned me to find and train young 
media students to produce a 6 part series of audio programmes on the 
co-operative business model.

"Co-Operative shorts" looks at the history of the business model, ethics 
of Co-operatives, how the movement works across the world.  There are 
also three local episodes focusing on Cambridgeshire, Suffolk and Norfolk.

The students successfully completed the series and now they are 
available to all community radio stations to broadcast for free and as 
often as you like.

Each episode is around 10 minutes in length and can be used as 
standalone content on the station or embedded into other programmes.
I have made available MP3 and WAV versions of the episodes as well as 
introduction sheets to each episodes, clips and a cue sheet to make the 
workload in getting these to air as little as possible.

You can find all the content here: http://www.neonstreet.net/coop

Although three of the episodes are localised to Cambs, Suffolk and 
Norfolk, the other three are not local and can be used across the country.

If you like what you hear and would like to air them, then please go 
ahead.  There is no fee as the co-operative membership wanted these 
produced to help educate people about the business model.  With the 
economic climate as it is, now is the opportunity for young people to 
take the lead into developing their own business.

I would ask if you can let me know a date and time of broadcast so that 
I can inform co-operative memberships and members in your area aware so 
they can listen in.

If you want to talk about this in more detail or have any questions then 
please don't hesitate to call or email me.
