AboutTim Longhurst

Hi there. I'm Tim, the creator of Now Croydon and a born and bred Croydon resident who wants to share the things that make our town a great place to live, work or visit.
Now Croydon has its roots in the former Croydon Radio, the community radio station I co-founded in 2011. Croydon Radio was about giving a new voice to Croydon; its people, businesses, causes and campaigns and shining a light on the things that we loved about Croydon, the things that frustrated us, made us excited for the future or proud of its people.
Croydon Radio hosted the first extensive calendar of events for Croydon with activities promoted on air and in daily and weekly emails sent to thousands of subscribers.
After Croydon Radio closed, there was a real lack of centralised news and events coverage and so on January 1st 2018, I started Now Croydon to fill the gap and create a news hub and events calendar to gather content from across the borough.

I can assist with graphic design, audio and video production or even provide a voiceover.
I specialise in teaser videos for ebooks, music releases, podcasts and more. Projects such as these help me keep Now Croydon running.
Get in touch if you'd like to work together.
