Around the world
The clockwork radio
        Trevor Baylis, a British inventor, was listening to a radio programme about health problems in Africa one day. He then realised how much a radio could help African people learn about health and health care.
Electricity and batteries are expensive and hard to get in some parts of Africa, so he developed a clever radio that works without batteries or electricity. The clockwork or wind-up radio, first made in South Africa in the 1990s, changed the lives of many African people.
Even in tiny villages which
had no electricity or other
forms of communication,
people began to listen to
the radio, not only for entertainment, but to educate themselves too.
Work in groups. Decide what to include
in your school radio programme.
 News
 Music
 Stories
 Interviews
 Phone-ins
 Weather reports
