Newscast October 2014
Back after a prolonged summer break, this month’s newscast is a treat for the ears. We bring you incredible poetry from the young people from the New Horizons centre in Chalton Street. In a night organised by new local organisation Youth Sauce, these young people reimagined their own tough stories and fairytales dark and grim set in Somerstown.
Our second story comes from Rochester Square Gardens and the community who have been squatting there for more than a year now. They have wonderful plans for the space and visions of returning it as a natural paradise to the local community, but it is proving a slow process. Listen in to find out more about this alternative group and what they’re trying to achieve.
Lastly, we close with an interview and some music from our newest recruit Melvyn.
Enjoy!
