With the broadcasting switchover date almost upon us, the final touches are coming in quick and fast. We'll still have work to do once we are broadcasting from Collingwood Yards, but it will be a huge achievement that we are all very excited about and proud of. And of course, we know we couldn't have done it without the support of our amazing community.
We are still seeking donations, as the bills continue to roll in, so if you are able to make a tax-deductible donation please do so.
We have managed to raise around 80% of the ever expanding budget of $2.5 million. Thank you to everyone who has donated so far. It’s going to be amazing, and we can't wait to be broadcasting from the new premises by the end of the year.
