• She was so inspirational as a talker, encouraging them to follow their hearts and passions, show perseverance in the face of setbacks. So many anecdotes about coping with freelancing, pitching, keeping in touch with editors and contacts over a long period. She was so supportive to the student interviewers and gave them so many tips about being organised, work-life balance, balance and adapting to changing news situations. Shared her failures and successes and demonstrated how people are at the heart of every story. Great knowledge on how to approach a podcast. She's a great lecturer.

  • “Angie is a tenacious reporter with a meticulous attention to detail. Upholding truth and uncovering injustice is an intrinsic part of Angie’s journalism. If there’s a story there, she’ll find it. Off air Angie is a consistent, reliable professional but she’s also full of empathy- a pleasure to work with.”

    Sinead Carroll, Presenter/Reporter/Producer, BBC News

  • “She understands audio, video and social and can bring stories to life with her creativity.

    Beyond that Angie is a genuine person. She has integrity. This is why contributors feel comfortable opening up to her.

    The final results speak for themselves! “

  • “Angie Walker is a delight to work with! She is professional, polite, and personable. Her skills are manyfold, she is an excellent host who knows how to listen and gives time for the conversation to develop. Her genuineness shines through her work from her excellent talent in communication, aptitude in research to her high proficiency and expertise in editing and producing. Indeed, I have had very positive responses from both the podcast and the blog.”

    Robin Hadley, Associate Lecturer, The Manchester Metropolitan University

  • “Angie is a very personable, professional and interested journalist whose TV reports enabled our small local community to shine a spotlight on some quite extreme development proposals of a national housebuilder. They had been granted outline planning permission by the Secretary of State for a dense housing development to be built on the edge of our small rural village in South Oxfordshire. Unbeknown to the Planning Inpector there were some major factors that were not known about when the permission was granted including ground works with the potential to contaminate the drinking water supply serving Henley-on-Thames and its hinterland.”

    I have no doubt that the increased publicity and attention resulting from Angie’s reports helped to ensure that the Local Planning Authority took its obligations to protect the interests of local residents much more seriously than it might otherwise have done; and in the ultimate rejection of the proposals.”

    Peter Boros, Chartered Surveyor, Henley-on-Thames

  • “Angela Walker is a very accomplished and experienced Broadcast Journalist, who gave an excellent representation of the history of our Save Radley Lakes campaign during her time at BBC South News.”

    Jo Cartmell, Environmental Campaigner

  • “I have been interviewed by Angela Walker on behalf of BBC South Today on numerous occasions. I was always extremely impressed by Angela; in her pre-interview communication, her attention to detail, and her even-handedness in dealing with the subject matter. Whilst the subject was always agriculture-related, we covered a multitude of subjects including Brexit, farm safety, mental health, and weather related issues to name but a few. After these were aired on TV a number of my farming colleagues commented on how appropriate the questions Angela asked were, and how she was clearly well informed on the subject she was dealing with.”

    Jeff Powell, Former County Chair of the National Farmers for Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, and Oxfordshire

  • “Our village, which floods regularly, faced a disproportionate development on higher land that could increase the flood risks. Angela visited, discussed the issues, and planned the form of the coverage. She voiced, filmed and edited a report including graphics and an interview she carried out with our MP. The outcome was so effective that this little village was given over 2 minutes of air time during the peak BBC South Today news bulletin. The issue was subsequently raised with the Prime Minister in the House of Commons.”
