Sponsorship & Promotions
Build long-term awareness of your products and services
When we’re in the car or walking to the train station we want to know what’s happening on the roads and whether the train is on time. What the weather is doing can inform our decisions, and almost everyone has a favourite genre of music.

Sponsorship allows you to become a part of these features and programmes. Research shows that radio builds loyalty and trust, and listeners think of their favourite station as a friend or companion.
It’s also a great way to build long-term brand awareness.
Our team will work with you to create a campaign which suits your business. And as a community radio station we’re closer to the audience we serve.
To find out what we can do for your business, contact us and speak to our sales team.
