[cma-l] CMA AGM & Our Free Xmas Show For Community Radio Stations

[Paul Pennington]

I’m looking forward to attending the CMA AGM and I’m grateful for the opportunity to speak at the event on behalf of our not for profit organisation Word On Health and as an ambassador for Comic Relief. 

 

For stations who aren’t able to attend – just a quick note  on our 57min 40 secs ‘So this is Xmas’ Show – made specially for community radio  – will be available next Wednesday the 21st of December – Originally intended for just Xmas Day – in response to requests from stations, I’ve written it so that it can be used on either Xmas Day or Boxing Day – in either day time programming or at night – in an amongst satirical comedy with the professional comics from the Britain’s Got Satire team and elements from the Community Radio Comedy Writing Competition we piloted earlier this year. I look at a common occurrence over Xmas & New Year that will blight the festivities for many listeners and how to combat it.  I have an exclusive interview with Comic Relief looking at the impact of the £25million they invest each year, on the publics behalf, in projects in communities across the UK that are making a real difference    – with their support and blessing, we have David Tennant, Catherine Tate, Peter Kay and Matt Lucas making a contribution and there’s music from the Kaiser Chiefs, David Bowie, Jack White and Taylor Swift as well as a specially recorded acoustic from rising star, Kate Threlfall. There is no commercial involvement in this show – no adverts/no sponsors - everyone contributing has freely donated their time and talent to make the programme.  

 

Please get in touch with me directly if you’d like to take our Xmas show or indeed join the family of community radio stations that utilise our free to air Word On Health reports that I donate my time to make each week.

 

Many thanks,

 

Paul P

Subject: [cma-l] CMA meetings this week

 

Dear All,

Looking forward to seeing many of you at the CMA AGM on Saturday at Broadcasting House.

While I'm in London, I have a few other meetings this week. Please let me know if there is anything you want me to raise at these, by emailing me directly at chair at commedia.org.uk, rather than responding on this list.

Tomorrow, Thursday - I am seeing David Holdsworth at the BBC. This is our first catch up since conference.

Friday - Bill Best and I are at a British Library radio archiving meeting in the morning, then seeing Ofcom in the afternoon.

Best wishes,

Lucinda
