ONCE again our studios are full of youngsters who are with us for their school work experience.

This week it’s the turn of one of our sponsors, The King’s School in Macclesfield, and we will have the students learning all about what happens both on and off air at a radio station. The following week it’s the turn of Tytherington School and this year’s school year concludes with four students from Buxton Community School week commencing Monday, July 11.

It is also a busy time for our outside events team. Saturday, July 2, will see us at the Puss Bank School summer fair, the Bollington Cross School summer fair, the Sowcar Brook duck race, and the opening of Bollington Well Dressing week.

On Sunday, July 3, we will be at the Gawsworth Queen’s Birthday Fayre and the Chrome Motors Soccer Sixes, which this year are being held at the King’s School Derby Fields.
