Tipp Mid West Radio is proud to launch our ‘Buy Local, Support Your Community’ campaign today.
Now in its second year, the aim of the campaign is to encourage people to buy local ahead of Christmas.
Tipp Mid West Radio Station Manager Tom Hartnett says this campaign is a reminder to us all to make those Christmas purchases in your local town or village.
Mr Hartnett says similar to last year we hope to inform our listeners about the importance of shopping locally from boosting the local economy to maintaining and creating new jobs in the area.
This year the campaign will also highlight the community festive events taking place which we know plays a big role in increasing footfall into towns and villages.
Organisers of such events are being encouraged to send in their details well in advance of the event so we can let our listeners know about it through our Community Notice.
Tipp Mid West Radio’s Programme Controller Eoin O Donoghue says the message of Buy Local, Support Your Community’ will be heard on the radio, and will be seen on our website, app and social media platforms.
Mr O Donoghue says as a local community radio station along with a large social media following, we feel we’re best placed to get the message out to a huge amount of people about the importance of shopping in your area this festive season.
Eoin who also presents Business Matters, our monthly business show is also encouraging any businesses who would like to speak on this show to email [email protected], we’d love to hear from you.
