[cma-l] Funding news - Power to Change awards grants to grow and develop community businesses (UK-wide)

[Pippa]

I do hope the CMA will challenge Power to Change over their stance on Community Radio.  They are plain wrong when they say, and I quote from their own website:

‘hard to demonstrate they are locally rooted, as they cover a broad geographical area like a whole city, rather than a neighbourhood. Applications from community media organisations have often struggled to provide strong evidence of how they benefit the wider community’.

What utter tripe.  If I wasn’t busy getting a station ready to launch, I would take them on.  I wonder if there is someone from Global on their board.
