WITNEY TALKING NEWS TEAM CELEBRATES 40 YEARS ANNIVERSARY AND THEIR ORIGINAL FOUNDER IS THE CURRENT CHAIRMAN
Each week thousands of people read the Witney Gazette – but there are many West Oxfordshire residents who can’t because they suffer from loss of eyesight.
So each week a team of committed volunteers meets up in the Witney Methodist Church to record a one-hour programme drawn largely from the current Witney Gazette of news and items of interest. Also included are articles from the Faringdon Folly and Chipping Norton News, reports on local sport, a short quiz, Notice Board, the Editor’s choice of article and a short Reflections item. They also produce two special audio magazines each year.
