Manage episode 325731369 series 2894774
This is Episode 14 of This Is Islay, a volunteer-led podcast celebrating the people, places, events and connections of Islay and Jura.
We’re excited to welcome Florence Grey as co-host to this episode, assisted by Jolyon Thurgood.
The goal of This Is Islay is to use podcasting to foster community involvement, education and training, providing resources and facilities to research, produce and promote content for a worldwide audience. We collaborate with Islay High School through the support of their staff and access to their recording facilities, and are working closely with MYFOS to involve the young people of Islay in digital media and podcasting. This episode was recorded at Cyber Sounds Studio in Port Ellen and at the Gaelic Centre (ICCI) near Bowmore.
