Everyone has something to say - about where they live, what they're experiencing, and what they want to see happen. Our Community Reporters’ programme gives people a platform to tell these stories online.
We work with individuals from all kinds of communities to give them a voice and build their confidence in the use of social media tools.
Reporters learn how to produce content with new social media such as blogs, podcasts, films and wikis, and use everything from mobile phones to video cameras and webcams. Stories are distributed through our online networks, meaning that those voices can be heard by anyone online.
Community reporters can be local active individuals or participants in our training programmes.

This is a house in Whitby. I love it there. The winding streets of fishermen’s cottages, the harbour in the evening, the long walk down the beach to Sandsend, the faded glamour of the Metropole. The sea.
Somehow going there is like coming home....

For today’s August Break post I thought I’d share where I work. This is my office.

This used to be the entrance to Levenshulme Station. It looks as though there were steps behind the arch but they’re broken now and no longer in use.
I like that the old entrance is still there and that part of the Victorian station remains....

Inspired by Susannah’s post, this is the view from my bedroom window.
Many people yearn for the countryside, for rolling hills or woods. For some the sound of distant waves and seagulls lulls them to sleep. And me? I take comfort in bricks and...
