Over the years Braidwood Community Radio has provided funds to the Braidwood Central School to assist with the purchase of Safety Play Equipment for the Primary School children, and towards the new school bus, and to Braidwood Scouts and Braidwood SES.

Look at this. A few Goulburn artists and a Canberra one as well. But look at #9, an Ex-Braidwoodian, Tim Goodwin, who has played here and was interviewed by us. Keep rocking it, Tim.

Here’s this week’s Top Twenty…

This isn’t just about songs, it’s about music made by people you know.

If you’ve been feeling it, you’re not alone.

There’s something building in this community and every moment you tune in adds to it.

Listen closely. You’ll hear it too.

Airing every week on community radio stations around Australia.
