VT PACKAGE:
Limited wheelchair accessibility on Transport for London
Only one quarter of all underground stations in London have step-free access meaning that travelling in London is exceptionally difficult for those with disabilities.
When creating this VT package my editor assigned me to be the presenter of the package. This role involved me writing my own script and memorising it, stopping and talking to people on the streets for vox pops and finding a case study to make the package complete. I also assisted with transporting the kit and coming up with questions for the interviewee – Mr. Patrick McDermott.
Date of broadcast – 26/10/17

Radio Submission:
Trump tweets cause controversy yet again
The ever provocative president trump has again taken to twitter this week, this time to promote tweets of the far right British organisation Britain First
When creating this radio package my producer assigned me to collect student responses to three tweets from Britain First Donald Trump retweeted on 30thNovember. To create the package it involved me: Finding students willing to be recorded for the radio show, research focusing on Trumps twitter and previous points of controversy on his social media and writing my script.
