Who is In Other Good News?

In Other Good News or IOGN is a non partisan, non religious, feelgood organisation, dedicated to making the world a better place, 1 broadcast at a time.

Back in late March, 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic was starting to take a grip, and every news broadcast was focused on the doom, gloom, and case numbers, Andy and his two sons decided to create a live news broadcast that gave people something different to watch.
Something fun, light hearted, and feel good, with no hidden agendas.

The show was aptly called In Other Good News, broadcasting only good news stories and good things happening in their local community.

IOGN has evolved from a pure news broadcast into a multifaceted organisation, adding multiple charitable events, such as free coffee carts (making free coffee for locals), a live telethon raising money for the charity Foodbank, and an online store selling its very own range of coffee beans which has an ongoing commitment to charity.

IOGN plans to continue to operate after the COVID-19 crisis has subsided, and explore opportunities which help the community survive, and then thrive past the pandemic.
