The radio station is predominantly operated by an enthusiastic and committed team of volunteers, supported by a small team of staff who coordinate volunteer activity and deliver community focused projects and training opportunities, which are designed to meet the aims and core commitments of the station.
Over the past 4 years the radio station has delivered a number of high profile and awarding winning projects, which have supported hundreds people with training, employability, volunteering and capacity building opportunities.
We are always looking to add to our pool of volunteers so if you can spare a few hours a week to support a local and rewarding initiative we would love to hear from you. Our programme schedule is fairly fluid which means we can experiment with new music and programme formats, so if you have a good idea for a new show then we would love to hear from you (full training will provided).
Remember this is your platform so if you’re a local Musician, Band, Entertainer, Poet, Comedian or whatever other talents you posses and want the rest of Middlesbrough and Tees Valley area to know about it then we are here for you.
