ASRA London Social

Hello - did you miss us? Oh, well, anyway, we’re back and we’re having another social. Plenty of warning this time, it will be at The Royal George, Goslett Yard, off Charing Cross Road, WC2H 0EA (map) in London’s Trendy West End at 6pm on Thursday 22 March. Put it in your diaries now!

The venue has been personally booked by Xfm’s weekend breakfast presenter Marsha Shandur, who once had a party there and says its dead good. They’ll be a small quiz-based element and all the usual drunken palaver, but this event will be nothing without you and your student radio friends.

So. Clear that date. Forward this to all your friends. And please please email social@studentradioalumni.com to let us know that you are coming. We don’t charge to get in, just ask that you join our (very occasional) mailing list.

If you’ve never been before these ASRA socials are top drinking events with a little bit of networking on the side - we’re all doing jolly well in our careers thank you very much, and whilst that’s undoubtedly down to raw talent (*cough*) a little bit of who you know can’t go amiss, can it? eh? eh? You can also think of it as your station’s reunion, that we’re organising, so contact your ex-student radio mates and tell them!

See you in March!

Love

The ASRA Committee

Site Tidy Up

Hello Alumni,

We’ve had a bit of a tidy-up here at studentradioalumni.com, mainly because we’ve got lots of stuff planned and we want tell you about it.

If you’re new here and want to know what we’re all about, it’s actually very simple. If you were in student radio, you’re a member of ASRA, we just might not have your email address. We organise get-togethers, usually around beer. Think of us as the organisers of your student radio reunion party. And if only two of your mates turn up it doesn’t matter as there’ll be loads of other ex-student radio people there too.

We also organise, on behalf of the Radio Academy, their Masterclass events. These are great days where if you want to get into radio (student radio or not) you can come along and hear from people who work in the business.

Anyway, the key thing is to sign-up for our mailing list, so we know how to tell you about all the stuff we’re doing. And if you want to get in touch, you can, by emailing asra@studentradioalumni.com.
