About Us
What is the
Radio Bemerton orginisation?
Radio Bemerton orginisation is a community radio station which
will start broadcasting later this year for a 9 day period
under the call sign of Wickid fm. The station aims to exclusively
cover the Salisbury Area of Wiltshire and follow on from the
success of our previous broadcasts.
Who runs
the radio station?
The project is supported by Local network fund in association
with the Community foundation for Wiltshire & Swindon.
And is run by a dedicated team of volenteers. This partnership
helps us provide support and training to make the station
a success, but essentially we would like the residents of
Salisbury to have a say on how the station is run and how
it will sound.
What type
of programmes will the station broadcast?
Last year we undertook an extensive market research campaign
in the local community to establish the type of programmes
we should broadcast. This year we to aim to build on these
findings and reflect the results in our programmes.
How can I
get involved?
Right now, we are looking for people who live locally to offer
just a few hours a week, or whatever time they have, to become
actively involved with the radio station in a number of areas.
