Due to the current situation regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. Kirklees Local TV will be reducing its activity in its main office from Monday the 23rd March to 6th April.
We will do our best to minimise disruption to our regular content schedule. However, it is likely there will be fewer videos and articles in the coming weeks, as we reduce our human resources in our office.
We will continue to follow the guidelines put forward by the World Health Organisation, NHS, Kirklees Council, and the Department of Health and Social Care, and encourage all others to do the same, including social distancing and washing hands.
These are uncertain times, but we must continue to work together for the good of everyone in our community. In that spirit, we’d like to share a few resources that may help in this trying time.
