Local Audio News
for
People With Impaired Vision
Tynedale Talking Newspaper (TTN) is a small charity with an income from fund raising and donations.
Founded in 1982, it's run by around 60 volunteers, forming 8 reading teams.
Each week the Hexham Courant is recorded and copied to standard USB memory sticks, which are sent to about 80 blind and partially sighted listeners in Tynedale.
​
In 2020 we began recording and distributing audio versions of The Northumbrian magazine and every three months we produce our own audio magazine featuring items of local interest.
​
Listeners can play recordings on their own computer or on a special player, designed for people with impaired vision.
TTN can provide these on free loan.
