Informed: The COSSD radio show
Informed is the Council of Social Services (Dunedin) radio show, hosted by our Membership Support and Services Officer Alan Shanks.
Each week Alan talks with representatives from local not-for-profit organisations about the work they’re doing in the Dunedin community, and how they came to be involved with Dunedin’s not-for-profit sector.
Listen live
Informed is broadcast 10:30am Tuesdays on Otago Access Radio 105.4FM, and is kindly sponsored by English Language Partners Dunedin.
