In 1999, Aeronautical Telecommunications Limited (AEROTEL) was granted a license to broadcast flight information which was conducted from its office in Montego Bay. Under the terms of the license, Kool 97 FM focuses on music, with special features depicting aspects of Jamaica’s culture. For the convenience of travellers, flight schedules are broadcast at the top of the hour. The station also broadcast news, sports, weather as well as relevant information pertaining to activities taking place at Jamaica’s International Airports. Kool 97 FM has carved out a niche market in the Jamaican media landscape since hitting the airwaves in November 2001. We programme adult contemporary music, 45% of which is Reggae music. Our target audience consists primarily of persons who are 25 years and over. This group has diverse lifestyle preferences but finds consensus on one issue - Music that is melodic and familiar, the kind they grew up with and the kind that is missing across the stretch of Jamaican bandwidth. With the recent addition of newscasts, Kool 97 FM has created a balance. Listeners are now served the best of music and news content. In addition, the station is continuing to develop music programmes and special features which cover a wide range of subject matters to appeal to advertisers and listeners. In keeping with the mandate of our Broadcast License, Kool 97FM continues to highlight activities in all sectors, including tourism, entertainment, government, business and aviation. Join the Kool Team as we venture into the mountains, participate in cultural activities, explore our island and uplift each other with positive motivational messages. Kool 97 FM enjoys island wide coverage.

From the team at Bellevue Hospital

September may be coming to an end, but the conversation around su***de prevention and mental health should never stop.

Let’s continue to check in, listen without judgment, show up for one another, and remind those who may be struggling that they are not alone.

Su***de prevention is not just a September responsibility, it’s an ongoing commitment. Together, we can keep the conversation going, create spaces where people feel safe to speak, and build a Jamaica where mental health matters every day.💜🩵

An important message from the team at Ministry of Education & Youth

You may not be the one doing the bullying, but your response can still make you guilty.

Laughing, sharing, encouraging, or staying silent can make harmful behaviour feel acceptable. You have the power to change the moment by refusing to participate and choosing to speak up.

What you do matters. Speak up. Stand up. Be part of the solution.
