Digital UK is the independent, non-for-profit organisation leading the process of digital TV switchover in the UK, and announces the dates for digital TV switchover in mid and south east Wales.  This follows the date announcement for west and north Wales earlier this year.  The details for South East details are set out below:

Transmitter	Area Covered	Switchover start date	Switchover finish date
Wenvoe	south east Wales, including Cardiff and Newport	3 March 2010	31 March 2010

The Digital Switchover Help Scheme is run by the BBC through an agreement with the UK Government to give practical help to older and disabled people to convert one TV in their homes to digital.  The Help Scheme will become operational in an area approximately seven months before the start of switchover.

Please contact me if you would like more information on switchover or if you wish to organise a meeting to discuss the process either in these areas or nationally across Wales.  My telephone number is 07792 010 758 and my email address is gwenllian.carr@digitaluk.co.uk
