Farewell Damien.
After three years of service our Community Media Facilitator, Damien, will be leaving Nunny TV and heading south to London after securing a job working for proper telly. With us from the inception, Damien has helped shape Nunny TV into the award-winning, sustainable project it is today. Thanks very much for all you've done and good luck with your career.
We'll be having a few celebratory drinks in the Tap & Spile on Saturday 5th Dec (celebrating Damien's new job, not the fact that he's leaving), and you're all welcome to join us.
