    Great idea, badly need something like this in Tramore.. Who's behind getting this up and running?

    I'm sure they will get plenty of support from the locals however they need to change their pricing for their mugs, €8 for a cup???? :eek:

    Couple of Tramore people came up with the idea and set it up, Garrett Wyse and Mark Graham, with support from Waterford Area Partnership.

    Good on em..

    My uncle is the manager of Connemara Community Radio and it takes a fair bit of work and commitment from all involved to run something like this, they have close to 100 people involved from paid employees to volunteers who do research and contribute time to help with fund raising etc, so I hope they get the support and funds they need.
