Station House Media Unit
Station House Media Unit (shmu) is a community media charity working in the regeneration areas of Aberdeen. We support residents of these communities (Tillydrone, Woodside, Seaton, Northfield, Middlefield, Cummings Park and Torry) in radio and video production, traditional and on-line publications, music production and digital inclusion. The organisation also supports other disadvantaged communities, both geographic and communities of interest, with an employability and training arm, and a recently developed a programme for offenders, both pre and post release.
Successful initiatives have made the organisation a nationally recognised centre of excellence and created models of good practice in: youth work; regeneration; digital inclusion; adult and family literacy and numeracy; community capacity building; personal and community development; employability skills; criminal justice, and the curriculum for excellence.
