Big Lunch on Radio Derby
Thanks to being signed up well in advance for this year's Big Lunch, Katharine Childs (Chair of the Residents' Group) was contacted by a press agency who wanted to use a Big Lunch Case Study on Radio Derby.
Katharine agreed, and a couple of days later found herself as a phone-in guest on the "Faith & Ethics Show" on Radio Derby at twenty past eight in the morning! The host of the show, Johnny Kinch, asked about the general idea behind the Big Lunch and also talked about what happened in Blackwell last year. Then there was chance to plug this year's Big Lunch too!
As with all live events, there was a lot of thinking on your feet, and it was only afterwards that Katharine realised she had forgotten to mention the Residents' Group by name. However, there was a lot of detail about the Big Lunch event itself.
You can listen to the interview again until Saturday 26th June at: BBC Radio Derby's website and then fast forward to about 2 hours 20 minutes.
