Jim’s Back !
Ferry Fm is sponsored by Ards Borough Council’s Good Relations Officer, Jim Murdock, who took to the air waves on Friday morning, along with a group of American Exchange visitors who are spending the day in the town ! (Hello to the folks back home, by the way.) Jim also chatted to Hannah, from Portaferry Sports Centre about the various keep fit options available there.
“Oh What a night…”

Apology
Portaferry Gala Committee would like to apologise for the lack of “Dolly and Cash” at the Tribute Concert last night. The duo were injured in a car crash on Saturday afternoon and unable to attend the event. Unfortunately we were not informed of this and were totally unaware the concert would not be taking place.
We sincerely thank those who attended for their understanding and patience and hope you enjoyed the evening.
