Radio Witney has already taken off. Local radio stations do work in this age of the world wide web .

Mark from Radio AbingdonXtra was there at the recent music in the park.

The radio station has two regular DJs producing programs that can be listened to at any time on-line. Sam Colmer has been creating a weekly program featuring music from local bands for some time. He has been joined by Stuart Brackley doing programs about the music he is passionate about: blues and soul. Both sound very good and there are impending plans for more programs.

The Nag’s Head is now provided the main sponsorship which will give the radio station a licence to play main stream music 24X7 over the internet.

But to make this radio station unique to Abingdon, they need, between the music, local content which only community groups and societies and people can provide. They need features where local people go in and talk, and make podcasts (short digital programs) about what they care about.
