BBC Tour in February 2010
 | Mike and Vivienne on the set of Northwest Tonight
12 volunteers and service users from new way forward toured the BBC facility on Oxford Road in Manchester on 20 February, 2010.
Tour guests saw the staging area for BBC radio dramas, such as The Archers, sat in the Philharmonic Orchestra studio, and gave simulated weather broadcasts in a working studio. We'd all like to say a big "thank you" to Louise and Thaj at the BBC for a fantastic tour and for the opportunity to visit and learn.
