SYBD Media Coverage
SYBD has benefited from a wide variety of media coverage since its inception in 2000.
While we’ve not had much coverage recently (primarily due to the site being “furloughed”) we look forward to some new coverage with the anniversary.
Here are some past nuggets of media coverage and a list below that of TV, Radio, Magazines etc.
If you would like to feature SYBD or interview Thea, please get in touch with us today.
