Cue & Review Talking Newspapers

In his second edition, Jools talks to Gordon Stevenson of Erskine about their new Erskine Veterans Radio along with talking about the work of the charity in lockdown.   For many of us, listening to the radio is part of our everyday routine. It offers a level of companionship with uplifting music and helps us keep up to date with the latest news. Erskine is excited to announce the launch of our first Erskine Veterans’ Radio.  You can listen to Erskine Veterans Radio 24 hours a day with great music you just have to sing along to. Presenter Ian Brannan also hosts an hour of music and conversation along with your mentions on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays at 3 pm (repeated that day at 7pm if you miss it!). New shows will be available live and on-demand every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday at 3 pm – repeated at 7pm on those same days.  Soft launch is April 19th. Veterans, families, and Erskine supporters globally can send in messages by filling out the form below or emailing [email protected]. A telephone requests answer machine will be made available at a later date.  Stay tuned for more information.  To become a Cue and Review Audio Ambassador visit www.cueandreview.com/promotion where you can download resources that can help you increase awareness of talking newspapers.
