It is said that when Mozart heard sounds he perceived them as colours, and that when music played, rainbows streamed across his vision. This phenomenon is known as Synaesthesia, the word deriving from the Greek meaning a ‘coming together’ or ‘union of the senses’. Synaesthesia takes many forms,(although sound-to-colour is reported to be the most common). Some people perceive sounds as textures, (auditory-tactile), while others experience words as tastes,(lexical-gustatory). It was once thought that Synaesthesia was a pathological condition. However it’s now recognised as a natural ability that some people, like Mozart, possess to a high degree.

Mum has now long retired from that role I was persuaded to get involved by another volunteer on the team. I am an Ecommerce Manager for a local company, The Kid Collective Ltd. I have worked in the digital space for many years, so I felt my skills were best put to use in the Chronicle online team. I now manage the images for the Chronicle website, post 10 - 20 articles a month and keep the digital ‘Noticeboard’ up to date with local events. We’re a small team and would love to have more members. You don’t need to have digital experience to volunteer for the online team. The posting process is quite simple once you know how, so why not give it a go!.
