John Tarling Brighton Rotary cheque

Wealden Talking News were delighted to receive a visit from John Tarling, Trustee of the Brighton, Hove & District Talking Newspaper, on Wednesday 16 October.

John presented us with a generous cheque representing some of the residual funds following the sad closure of BH&DTN in March 2023. This enabled up to offset the added production costs of including our 5th news edition.

The Brighton area talking newspaper had a proud history of 47 years bringing local news to visually impaired people in the local area.  Sadly dwindling listener figures, volunteers and newer technology threatened the charity and the news service has now been taken over by Wealden Talking News.

We would like to thank our generous sponsors
