So good to read this. Clearly Grants understands local radio and are willing to give it a go even in places where others have exited.
Hot Tomato is an excellent example of good local radio that has massive support in the community.
I'm moving to a Grant Market... Sounds like they've got their head squarely in the game!! Well done guys!
Hi Alison, your company has always been one of the greats in Australian Radio. Never worked for you or your mum in media.... but to read this article is just so relevant and so encouraging. Well done and keep it going.
So many if the great stations have not only lost their identity and call sign, they have lost the ability to be local and too even know what it means. Great stations on the Coast of NSW I worked for and Managed that owned the town... people knew us and staff were ready to be their at 3 in the morning if they had to and support a local issue. Keep up the great work, your staff and the people (sorry Community) you serve will love you for it.
