BBC Radio Manchester debut for Joy Daglish on the Heather Stott coffee club show!
Earlier in the summer I was contacted by one of the BBC’s broadcast journalists about appearing on the Coffee Club show. Well that’ll be a first I thought – and it’ll be great to be able to tell people about Special People North.
So this is how it was that on Wednesday 18th August I found myself driving very nervously to BBC Manchester’s studio, and along with two other members of the public was live on the radio for the best part of an hour. I was the new girl – the other two had done this before – but Heather and the production team put me completely at ease.
I had the opportunity to speak at some length about what Special People North can do for families that have children/young adults with special needs. Not sure my radio voice makes me a natural DJ so I don’t think there will be much moonlighting on the radio for me! But let me know what your think.
If you are interested in listening the link is below to the BBC iplayer site, it’ll be accessible until next Tuesday 24th August so don’t wait too long to listen.

The link is below and the programme also has a heading of “Taekwondo Championship in Manchester” because during the show a reporter came in to talk about training with the team.
