Radio Teesdale on the Road

What a busy few weeks it has been! It was great to get out and meet members of the community at the first of our Radio Roadshow events. We were overwhelmed with the support we had from people at Staindrop, It shows that the people of Teesdale are really excited about the launch and are keen to ensure the radio station really reflects the local community. We would like to thank everyone who gave up their time to make the event such a success. Many businesses in local organisations came along with displays including Thorpe Farm Centre with their beautiful owl (see the photo gallery), Teesdale Glass Engravers, The Enterprise Agency, 2 D, Glendale Productions, Teesdale Training and Loopy Lisa Fudge.
