“We are delighted that Barbara is working for us at TV News London “ says TVNL’s Managing Director. Roz Morris.  “I know that her advice will be extremely valuable to our clients.  Many people are still unsure or mystified about the bottom line benefits of blogging, twittering and using LinkedIn and other social networks. Barbara can both demystify and clarify the huge business potential of social media and help you work out what’s best for your company.”

“I’m thrilled to be working with TV News London,“ says Barbara.  “The lines between traditional media and social media are blurring, and even disappearing.  Social media is not only changing the way companies communicate with their online audiences, it is increasingly influencing how traditional media research your business and gather story ideas. So it is now essential to combine traditional spokesperson skills with social media savvy.”

TV News London Trainer on Radio 4

TV News London’s Media and Presentation Trainer Kati Whitaker was recently featured on BBC Radio 4 with her programme ‘Far from the Madding Child’ about a Scottish village where children are not allowed to live.  

Residents of Firhall near Nairn must be 45 years old in order to own a property and agree to have no ducks, rabbits , pigeons and bees. They are allowed one dog but no children.  Residents say they are happy and that Firhall offers them peace and quiet. They can have grandchildren and the children of friends to visit – within limits.  In her programme Kati asks if this lifestyle is desirable in encouraging the sort of settlements where older people are segregated from the rest of society. 

Kati is an award-winning radio journalist who frequently reports on Radio 4 as well as a working for TV News London as a media and presentation trainer. Contact us at info@tvnewslondon.co.uk if you would like Kati to improve your presentations and media interviews.
