They are keen to hear from community radio stations (TV & Print titles) who would like to get involved in supporting Red Nose Day 2017. They can offer project visits, fundraising stories, local school stories and perhaps a bit of celeb time too (this will be TBC). As many of you know Comic Relief provides around £25million pounds of funding each year to projects right across the UK, including community radio stations – they are, quite rightly, very proud, thanks to the magnificent support of the public, of the work they have supported in communities across the UK in the likes of mental health, domestic violence and homelessness, to name but three. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I have offered to act as a point of contact/liaison for community stations and comic relief – so please let me know ASAP via <a href="mailto:paul@wordonhealth.com">paul@wordonhealth.com</a> if your station would like to get involved. Can I also say a big thank you to the Community Media Association for their support.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Best<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Paul P<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>Paul Pennington<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>Word On Health<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>paulpennington@btconnect.com<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>@wordonhealth<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>T: 020 7272 3915<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'><a href="http://www.wordonhealth.com"><b><span style='color:blue'>www.wordonhealth.com</span></b></a><b><span style='color:#1F497D'> is the home of our not-for-profit company and radio series, now in its 21st year, that features on local independent & community radio stations across the UK. <o:p></o:p></span></b></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>We receive no external funding to make the Word On Health radio series.
