Young voices to broadcast

Cobaw's WayOut project worker, Lachlan Slade and WayOut member, Sam Morris practice interview skills as Cobaw prepares for is new youth radio program, Outlands.

A new youth radio program is calling for young people people to give it a voice.
The program, Outlands, will be broadcast on 100.7 Highlands FM in about two months.
The Cobaw Community Health facilitated project was launched at the Kyneton Botanic Gardens this week.
Outlands aims to give its young presenters a program to share youth interests, music and issues, also giving them skills in radio production and interview techniques.
"It gives young people an opportunity to really put their voice out there more than they would on any other platform," Outlands facilitator and Cobaw's WayOut project worker, Lachlan Slade said. 
Organisers are seeking people who are interested in radio presenting, production, and reporting stories.
Cobaw hosted a launch barbecue on Wednesday as an opportunity for young people to register their interest in participating in the program.
"Outlands is a great opportunity for young people to get their voice on radio and make a real difference to the community they are living in," Mr Slade said. 
"We are seeking people between the ages of 14 and 21 who are enthusiastic and excited about learning more about radio and broadcasting to become involved and help present the program."
"You don't need any special skills or knowledge. We will provide full training, including how to make the program sound amazing."
