First Public meeting Saturday February 4th, 2pm at Asda meeting
room,Atlantic Village Bideford, for anyone interested in being part
of the project.
Age range 8 - 25 years of age
Join us in our new project to give children and young people a voice over the airwaves by setting up a community radio station for and run by children and young people.
We are now recruiting young people to be part to be the driving force behind the new venture. Anyone under the age of 20 (25 if you have a disability or special education need) can get involved and be part of the organising committee. Group meetings will be held via Skype minimising travel and opening this up to all regardless of your location. We will also be looking for budding radio presenters and those that are more interested in the technical aspects of radio and sound.
This will be a unique community radio station that will be led by and for children and young people. The new station will aim to have a programme of topics that are relevant to each age group and have guests speakers from statutory and community groups that will answer questions and give advice. The station will not broadcast chart music but instead will link with our VH Live project to bring the best original music from local bands, musicians and singers. We will also be supporting all other performing arts through radio plays, comedians and any talent that can be broadcast for radio.
This is a real opoortunity to have a voice and contribute to the local community and learn new skills.
If you are interested in getting involved in any aspect of community radio from DJ to technical support you will receive full training.

CARNIVAL ARTS NORTH DEVON Initiative. (C.A.N.D.I)
Carnival Arts North Devon is a new initiative that we are currently working to develop. The project is in the early stages of development and we are currently seeking to make partnerships with a variety of different groups and individuals. Through a programme of carnival arts workshops, dance sessions and music making we will aim to bring the richness of the world to North Devon. Through this programme we hope to foster and promote cultural awareness and respect.
We are now looking to enlist volunteers and like minded people to join us to make this project a reality and learn new skills. If you are interested in being a part of this project or would like to be kept informed of progress through email news letter please contact us.

ICAN Short break scheme
Following a period of consultation with families we are please to announce that the ICAN short break has been launched for North Devon.
The short break scheme is a service to support families to have a respite whilst their disabled child/young person can access leisure activities of their choice with the support of a trained enabler. Over the next few months preparing publicity material, and develop the web site for the scheme. We are starting to accepting registrations from families to match our current team of enablers.
Along side the ICAN Short break scheme we have also set up the ICAN socials to support larger shared group activities once a month. We have had two social outings this year, one to Lets go Superbowl and the second to the Milky Way. Both trips were great fun and everyone had a fantastic time. We are now looking forard to our next planned outing of a day at the Calvert Trust in March and a bike riding day on the Tarka Tail in April.
