ABC Radio Melbourne’s Afternoons presenter, Jacinta Parsons, has announced that she will be stepping back from the show from next week. 

Jacinta told her audience at the start of her program this afternoon, that she had decided to step away so she could focus on other responsibilities outside the ABC.   She will, however, continue to co-host The Friday Revue with Brian Nankervis, each Friday from 12.30pm to 3.30pm.  Her last Afternoons will be next Thursday, July 27. 

As well as presenting The Friday Revue, Jacinta will pursue some part-time professional opportunities outside the ABC.
