In 2015 107.8 Beverley FM was launched. This is a station specifically for the community in Beverley and all of its surrounding areas, including Tickton. [6]

Infrastructure

In February 2023, a regional internet service provider, Connexin, installed notices on lampposts around the village, informing residents of plans to erect new telegraph poles along several streets. [7] In a parish council meeting held later in the month, residents complained the poles would be an "eyesore" not worth the promise of faster and cheaper broadband. [8]
