I had my first experience of appearing on local radio this week, to promote the event: http://www.cuillinfm.co.uk/ Cuillin FM have busy of late - you can now receive the station in almost all parts of Skye, Raasay and some of the mainland. It's a great service, run by volunteers, playing music to suit a wide range of tastes and regular interviews with local celebrities! It's a great opportunity to promote local events (they run a what's on section on most live shows) and they also offer a very affordable advertising service for local businesses. Naturally they are always on the look-out for more volunteers so if you fancy realising a life-long dream to be a DJ, get in touch with them! email admin@cuillinfm.co.uk
UKVillages.co.uk is a FREE community portal site offering the opportunity to publish information about your community. They have cleverly set the site up with basic information about what looks like every single UK village, with arial photographs and maps. Looks like they finance themselves through advertising. http://www.ukvillages.co.uk/
You can find out more about how to raise an income for your group through the web if you attend the e-Day event. One of the workshops will concentrate on income generation, and another is about finding funding for ICT projects.
