CALM
The Campaign Against Living Miserably
(CALM)
is delivering comedy across the net, using FORscene to
podcast
its incredibly successful Stand Up To Stop Suicide comedy night.
Jane Powell, national director of CALM, said:
"The ability to publish podcasts of the event quickly is ... especially important when targeting a youth audience.
With Forbiddens help we have been able to turn around the production of these podcasts in a few days,
which has kept up the momentum on this most important campaign".
