TOWN FUELS ROCKET

Lewes Town Council has made a grant to Rocket FM, the Lewes community radio station, entering its fifth birthday year.

 Rocket will use the money to improve its equipment and technical standards.

Rocket's Chairman Andy Thomas said, "This is a wonderful fifth birthday present from the Town Council and will enable us to improve our broadcast platform;  it is a great start to our fund-raising efforts this year."

Anybody interested in sponsoring or advertising on Rocket FM this autumn should contact us now to hear what benefits they can receive in return.
