Service summary
We are the weekly Swindon & District Talking Newspaper (STAN). We give the blind, partially sighted and listeners with other disabilities the independent means of keeping in touch with what's going on in the local community.
Further information
The memory stick is played by a "boombox", an easy-to-use playback device, which is provided free of charge by STAN. Our newspapers recorded on a Wednesday evening and the memory sticks are sent out, in plastic wallets, every Thursday by post. (usually arriving with the listener on Friday morning.)
