Everyone at Bishop FM is a volunteer. We all share a passion for our local area and the programmes we broadcast.

An important role for Bishop FM is to help local groups and organisations get a message across to listeners in South Durham.
We’ve been joined by Citizens Advice, Bishop Auckland Neighbourhood Police, Bishop Auckland Town Team and other groups who have taken part in programmes on the station.

Myself, the dedicated volunteers and of course all of the stray and abandoned dogs at the Rescue Centre would like to say a huge THANK YOU for allowing us to share our stories with you and your listeners as well as allowing us to promote our fundraising events during our monthly update including ‘Dog of the Month’!
