SALLY MOON

Sally presented the "Nightline" programme for two years that was the 10 til 2 shift in those days. Programme changes saw Sally moved from her middle-of-the-night slot to afternoons between 2 and 5pm.

Sally became a disc jockey for a dare when she was down in bristol- she liked it so much she managed to get a job in her local club. That was followed by D.J. work in clubs in Germany and Denmark, and then it was back to Britain.

At that time no-one wanted to know a girl presenter so Sally fell back on her secretarial training. In a lucky break, she got a secretarial job at BBC Radio Merseyside. But she still couldnt get near a microphone,so she did a spell of promotions work for the BBC.

Sally proved to be one of the most popular presenters on Red Rose.

What`s Sally Been up to?

After leaving Red Rose, Sally ran her own PR company for over 18 months and then was head hunted back to the BBC at Radio Lancashire to do a mid morning chat show, where she spent a year.

During that time, Sally interviewed a Canadian who had come over to set up a cable TV company and he offered Sally the job of setting up Britain's first local television channel on cable TV where she was able to give the people of East Lancashire the chance to train free of charge and then make their own TV programmes.

It was so successful, Sally got head hunted again down to the South East, where she ran similar channels for companies in Windsor, Watford and Surrey and then was offered a group management role for ntl at their head office, where she set up and ran 6 cable TV channels across the UK from Glasgow right down to Hampshire.

All of this frantic executive pressure took it's toll and after not taking a holiday for over 10 years, Sally decided enough was enough and gave up her senior management job to move into the depths of the Welsh countryside where she helped restore a cottage and lived 'the good life', growing a lot of her own food organically.

Sally is also a qualified Teaching Master in the healing method called Reiki and she still practises and teaches this today.

Sally was invited to come back into radio by the group bidding for the license in Blackburn 'The Burn' 106FM and although they won't know if they will get it until 2004, Sally says that she has had quite a bit of contact from former colleagues and is hopeful of not only coming back to her first love of radio but returning to her native county of Lancashire.

In the meantime, Sally still does a lot of public speaking and also runs courses in presentation skills and motivational seminars.

In her spare time, Sally also continues to make a range of exclusive, hand made jewellery and she hopes to expand her outlets into the Lancashire area.


Sally at Red Rose

Sally was the first presenter to take Red Rose Radio through the night. Normally Sally would close down at 2am
and the station would be on air again at 6am with the breakfast show. Events on 23 May 1984 provided the greatest challenge ever to the newsroom and presenters of Red Rose Radio. I speak of course of The Abbeystead disaster.
