Would you like to tell the story of your community and learn valuable new skills at the same time?

The next West Leeds Dispatch community reporters’ course, starting in January, could be right top your street!

The six-week course is free, fun and aimed at beginners. It will give you the skills to help you tell the story of your community, and you’ll get the chance to meet new people (it looks good on your CV too)!

It takes you through the basics of photography, interviewing, writing an article and a headline, where to find news, podcasting and more!
