Community Media Changes lives

Community Media has the power to change lives:

It contributes to social inclusion by reaching hard-to-reach groups through accessible broadcasts, training and employment opportunities.
It promotes Community Cohesion by offering a common platform on which diverse and common interests can be shared and understood.
It contributes to neighbourhood renewal by enabling people to engage with regeneration initiatives in local communities.
It encourages volunteering and community participation by involving local people in the production of programmes and the management and operation of community media projects.
It promotes lifelong learning through vocational training for people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities.
It contributes to local democracy by promoting an informed citizenship, facilitating dialogue between communities and elected representatives and enabling meaningful participation in electoral processes.
It encourages the expression and dissemination of local culture
It contributes to media literacy by enabling members of the public to directly engage with, produce and understand the media.
It facilitates grassroots access to information communication technologies by enabling local people to use the internet and learn computer literacy skills in friendly and supportive environments. Community Media projects also enable communities to deliver information and programming on new technological platforms like broadband and wireless technologies.

Community Media has a lot to offer to those that participate in it and those who are able to support it.
