CREWE'S community radio station The Cat is looking to recruit new volunteers.
Broadcasts from studios in the town and run entirely by volunteers, the station continues to move forward and expand its offering to the community.
It has recently:
- Launched Cat Xtra, to serve as a home for new music
- Linked up as a media partner with Nantwich Town FC
- Jointly set up South Cheshire DAB Ltd to bring small-scale digital radio to South Cheshire
This has created opportunities for more enthusiastic volunteers to join The Cat, in a variety of roles on both sides of the microphone, including on air presenters, music library administrators, show producers, presenters and technicians for roadshow events, and social media managers.
The Cat says: "If any of these sound like you, then your local radio station would love to hear from you. It's a great way to learn new skills, develop confidence and meet new friends, whether it's an hour a week or four hours a day, the biggest requirement from all new members is commitment.
"If you're successful and offered a role, The Cat will invest time and money in your training."
Managing Director of The Cat Chris Cadman added: "As a truly local radio station our aim is to engage with the community and offer the opportunity for people of all ages to learn more about radio, get involved in community projects and maybe take that first step into the world of broadcasting "
