On Thursday, 25th September 2025, the BBC1 morning tv programme, Morning Live with Gethin Jones, Helen Skelton and Michelle Ackery included an excellent piece featuring our colleagues at Mid Devon Talking Newspaper, who have just been nominated for the BBC Mike a Difference Community Award. Huge congratulations to all the team in Devon and keep up the good work! It is very heartening for us to hear of fellow Talking Newspapers being acknowledged in this way as it reminds us of the importance of our service to listeners and it inspires us to do better.
If you would like to watch/listen to the piece, you can find it on BBC iplayer where it is listed under Morning Live Series 7: 25/09/2025. Alternatively, you can click here to be taken to the BBC iplayer link to the programme.
NB: The excerpt about the Talking Newspaper, which lasts 7 minutes, starts about half an hour from the beginning of the programme. So, if you want to go directly to it, just forward to 30 minutes into the programme, and the report about Mid Devon TN will follow shortly afterwards.
