- About Me:
- I'm Irish-Belgian and came to London in 2000 so this definitely feels like home.
I am Director of On Road Media Ltd, a 'Citizen Media' social enterprise that delivers training in podcasting, video blogging & social networks to marginalised groups and organisations so that they can have their say about the issues at the heart of their communities.
With a background in radio production at the BBC, I joined Media for Development in 2003 to set up the Prison Radio Outreach Project (PROP) and train the prisoner production team at HMP Wandsworth in London. PROP supports offenders into education and employment on release and encourages a more informed public debate through prisoner-led programmes broadcast on mainstream & community media in the UK.
We also train journalists for the NUJ, BBC and Guardian Newspapers internationally and in the UK.
- What change would you like to see around you?
- It worries me that people who produce blogs and podcasts and who comment on forums online are from the same demographic that produces mainstream media. We're working towards making sure that does not become the trend!

I forgot to ask what kind of equipment you are using for the two-day training in Feb? Are you using flip cameras?

I'd love to come on one of your video training courses. Have you got any in the pipeline?

You are welcome. Google normally update its data every month i.e. the result of changes which you have done would be visible in 15 days to 30 days time.

I was at the Stempra event you spoke at last night. It was a great talk and we found it really useful. Would it be possible for you to send me a link to or file of the Wandsworth prison podcast you played us a clip of?
Thanks a lot,
Emma
I must appear like I'm some teacher's pet or something! Seriously though, really enjoyed the training session yesterday and I'm looking forward to the next one.
Best wishes

I am pleased to be part of your network and hopefully to join any of the training sessions shortly.
Greetings from Cartagena, Spain
