<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>We have several hours a week produced and presented by
young people ranging generally from 10 years upwards.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>Several of these (generally 13 yrs and up) create
and present their programmes independently just as adults do, and do not need
the support of an adult in producion terms. Some do it as part of their DofE
Award service components, others as part of schemes organized informally with
local primary schools, and others just as individuals. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>However, we never permit under 18s to be in the station
alone - there must always be a 'responsible adult' present, but the adult is
often there purely for health, safety and security reasons and
not taking part in the production. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Hi all
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Out of (academic) interest how many community radio stations only work
with young people (under 18s) when there is staff present to support? This
might be facilitating a programme or training. And, if not, how many have
young broadcasters who create and broadcast just as adults do.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I find this interesting because, during some research, I've found both
kinds. which is more common?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Cheers all</DIV>
