[creative-radio] Preston FM's World AIDS Day

 

Preston FM supports World AIDS Day with special day of programmes

Preston's Community Radio Station, Preston FM, is suspending our usual broadcast schedule to bring Preston and beyond 14 hours of programmes dedicated to World AIDS Day this Tuesday 1st December 2009 from 8am, helping you learn more about how HIV/AIDS affects people here in the UK and around the world.

You can listen in Preston, UK and the surrounding area on 103.2 FM, and around the world online at www.preston.fm <http://www.preston.fm> (click the "listen live" link). And if you miss any of the programmes, we'll be podcasting as many of them as possible on our website.

The day will include a special edition of our Chat City Breakfast Show, as well as discussions, debates, documentaries and even dramas. Some programmes will be borrowed from other community radio stations around the world - but most are being made by Preston FM volunteers.

The theme for the day will be reflected in everything - the interviews, the features, the vox pops, the music, the content from around the world. Preston FM's music team have scoured the archives to find appropriate and relevant music for the day.

Our World AIDS Day coverage is part of Preston FM's "Preston & Beyond" project, funded by DFID's Development Awareness Fund, which is helping local people gain a better understanding of the UN Millennium Development Goals and other International Development topics.
