Can anyone recommend any good websites, sound files, audio cd, etc that contains different regional accents across the UK? I'm going to be delivering some training in the New Year where I want to use accents to prove different people's perceptions of where the accent is from.
Many thanks,

You only need to show a scrap of BBC childrens’ TV to get a pretty wide gamut of regional accents……..
Though nowadays it has to be said that where an accent come FROM is almost irrelevant…..unless you are trying to look at perceptions of regional character traits……which is a very dangerous area to go into!
