In
planning the Education Forum, TTOTA decided that promotion needed
to be as wide as possible. One of the group members, Christine Tanker
(pediatric O.T.), kindly contacted a number of television stations
to request that TTOTA appear on their channel to promote the association,
the upcoming fundraising Bar-B-Que and the Education Forum.
So on the 13th
May 2005, Lesley Garcia (TTOTA President) and Nicola McGarvey (Volunteer
O.T, responsible for the Education Campaign) appeared on 'Gayelle'
morning show, 'Cock-a-Doodle-Do', and for half an hour were given
air time to explain about O.T, the association and the up-coming
events.
On 16th May
2005, Lesley, Nicola and Dion Kong (Trinidadian O.T. student, currently
training in the U.S) appeared on NCC/Channel 4, on the morning show
with Ruskin Mark. This was for a whole hour, and again it was a
successful time, with opportunity to take calls from the general
public.
