Latest News Releases from Redstone FM


9 July 2010   Redstone FM students take to the air

The current Broadcast Opportunities course is coming to an end at the end of July. The climax for our six students is the opportunity to produce and present their own radio programmes.

This will be taking place on Meridian FM (East Grinstead) when students will be taking over the weekday 12noon to 2pm slot from Monday 12 July to Friday 16 July and again the following week.

You can listen to the shows on 107FM in the East Grinstead area or on line at www.meridianfm.com.

Redstone FM is grateful to the facilities offered by our friends at Meridian FM.


17 June 2010   Ofcom deny Redstone FM a full time license

In October 2008, Redstone FM, the community radio station for Redhill, Reigate & Horley submitted an application to Ofcom for a permanent broadcast license. After a 20 month wait, we have been advised that Ofcom are unable to grant us a community radio license giving the lack of FM frequencies in Greater London as the reason.

The board of Redstone FM will be meeting to consider the options for the future although our current training programme will continue unaffected by the news.


10 January 2010   Redstone FM runs new course for blind and partially sighted people

Redstone FM has received funding to run a further 'Broadcast Opportunities' course. The course is specifically for visually impaired persons and those with other disabilities and will teach basic radio production techniques plus sessions on developing CVs and job interview skills.

The course is run in conjunction with Meridian FM who will provide broadcast opportunities for students. The course runs from February to July 2010. Applications for places are now being accepted.
