Testimonials from past participants
“I did the podcasting course last year, [podcasting] is always something I’ve said I was going to do for years and I think it just gave me the confidence in learning … it was such a great course, it made me write more, it made me think about how I would but a podcast together, so when I had the opportunity to do the writing course… I jumped on it! Who wouldn’t?”
- Creative Writing Participant (Q1 2022)
“The podcast course was a real challenge for me but the support was amazing and I completed it! What opened the door for me was the individual learning plans … having that one to one time, there may have been things bubbling away at the back [of my mind] and you don’t think anyone wants to hear it, when you’re then given the chance to verbalise it, it’s like gosh… somebody wants to listen!”
- Creative Writing Participant (Q1 2022)
“What I’ve loved is the community … it’s kind of astonishing to have a place of connection, where you can connect with other people … it’s [also] astonishing it can be done online! who knew?”
- Let's Get Digital 6.0 Participant (2021)
“Taking something so complicated as a podcasting course … literally my knowledge of technology could be written on a grain of rice, [but] the patience that was put in and the effort that everyone put in, what they did for us … there was nothing that was insurmountable, nothing was too much and that instilled a level of confidence … it created a sort of an incubator for creativity, having that level of support and that’s what opened the door for further opportunity … it’s invaluable”

"If you are thinking about joining a course with Sonder Radio, I'd say do it, because they're incredibly supportive and they will tailor it for your abilities - one of the things that really blew me away about this whole experience, was that it was free... it was free training from people who know what they're talking about and they'll also lend you equipment - it is the most accessible, user friendly and inclusive service"
- Jane, Let's Get Digital 3.0
“Being given the opportunity to produce stuff, that’s golden - I thought the radio and tv were very much a closed shop, so it’s something I never really looked into until I went to the first course - but it’s something I definitely want to do more of - I do think there are lots of people that would benefit from the course”
- Let's Get Digital 1.0 Participant
“What I particularly like about the course is getting involved in the workshops with people and meeting the variety of new people that come to the workshop - it’s a great opportunity to get an insight into radio production, which is a rare opportunity and I’d encourage anyone who had the chance to take part, to take part”

“I know people in their 30s and above who really have an interest in radio & technology, who would benefit a lot from the Let’s Get Digital course - I know it would take them somewhere, because they already have the interest - and I know they would get the support from Sonder, regardless of what happens during the course, if they needed extra help on one subject or the other - I know they would take time and sit you aside, go over things with you and help you with it - so there’s no need to be afraid, taking the first step and signing up for the course - because the support is always there for you”
