George Yard Shopping Centre, in partnership with its Soft Services Provider OCS, implemented the Braintree Business Community Radio Link Scheme to expand the existing radio scheme from the precinct to the wider Braintree town centre. This is the first phase of that expansion, and it is offered free of charge for the first three months as a trial period.
