We have shown, over the last three years, that community radio is an effective tool for informal learning as well as a valuable tool for communicating issues which are under-served by mainstream media. As Preston FM enters its next phase, there are many ways that you can get involved with the project – we hope you’ll be excited by our ideas, and have some of your own as well.

Partnership is at the heart of what Preston FM does. We’re here as a resource for the community, and all the organisations that form part of it – public, private and voluntary.

Get your message out – by letting us know about your news and events, and by providing guests and panellists for our programmes.
Refer your users to us – we’re always happy to take referrals onto our training and volunteering programmes from agencies working in Preston and South Ribble.
Train yourselves – whether it’s volunteers or staff enrolling on our existing courses, or media training designed specifically for your organisation, we can help.
Get on air – you suggest the topic, and we can help you produce creative, exciting radio to help tell the city and South Ribble what you do and what you care about.
Creative consultation – use the power of radio to find out what local people think about any topic you care to choose.
Sponsorship – enhance awareness of your organisation and support a progressive community project, all at the same time, with our sponsorship packages.
Have a go yourself – want to set up radio in your school, on your website or in your village – we’ve got a wealth of experience to help you out.
