Countryfile in the Stroud Valleys: Electric bike scheme, Stroud Art Scene etc

Stroud District Council were delighted to assist the researcher for BBC’s Countryfile in putting their programme together, which was screened on 4th March (still available to view on the BBC iplayer). Our recommendations included the new electric bike scheme at Painswick Rococo Garden where we see presenter Matt Baker ride from Painswick to Bisley on one of the new bikes - now available for hire


Also featured were the Chalford donkeys and Stroud arts scene including the Pangolin foundry. BBC Countryfile receives up to 6.3 million viewers per week. As a result of the filming in the area, further media coverage was received from Stroud Life, SNJ and Radio 2 DJ Chris Evans on his morning breakfast show (receiving approx 8.8 million listeners per week).
