“I have been involved as a Trustee with Stirling Community Media for three years and also been involved in presenting on the charity community radio channel – CastleSound. I have become involved as I can see the huge value the community radio channel brings to others in the area and have seen at first hand the development of young people through our Media Matters Programmes. It makes me proud to be involved with a radio station that puts people and community at the heart of what we do.” Geoff Leask
