Barely Audible is a new audio podcast supporting mental Health issues in the UK, produced by Broadcast East.
A social media campaign to support the aims of a number of charities leveraging syndicated broadcast radio shows -and the community radio network.The Sunday Sit
The Sunday Sit Down
This is a brief, easily consumed piece created with digital and community radio in mind. The idea is to share stories in a concise format as a feature of an already popular radio show. The aim is to create a piece that can be used across the airwaves, with the intention of directing listeners to the longer podcast, 'Barely Audible'. The concept is to design a short segment that can fit within a 15-minute timeframe, incorporating music selected by the guest and encouraging listeners to gain further insight into the guest and their cause.
Barely Audible - podcast
We will craft a 30-minute audio podcast for the Audible Platform to set out the aims of the charity, tell the subject's story and, provide some advice and insight that may be of use.
Radio Advert
The aim is to produce an impactful radio ad that can be used by smaller stations to signpost the work of chosen charities after the Sunday programme has aired. The ad would be 30 seconds long and would feature the 'Here to Help' theme. It would be made available for download by any station, whether or not they take the Sunday programme.

Work is being carried out to complete the first stage of the campaign, with the first Sunday Sit Down being planned for October with May Ladd. This will be followed by Simon Wilkinson, A Hike with Mike. The longer podcast is to be created in November. Discussions have begun with SOS.
