Some journeys begin with a spark of inspiration. Others are forged through decades of experience, resilience, and a relentless pursuit of truth. For Keith Hayes, the founder of Mirador Television Lewes, his story is all three. It is a journey that began with a passion for travel and storytelling, and evolved into a lifetime dedicated to broadcasting, education, and creating a platform for independent voices.
"I always had wanderlust," Hayes reflects. "From the age of 18, I was fascinated by the radio and television stations I encountered abroad. Back home, broadcasting was tightly controlled, but in North America, small local stations thrived. That contrast stayed with me."
