We know you love listening to us, but we also know that many of you haven’t downloaded the Community Radio Plus app yet. The App lets you tune in anywhere, AND share the station with your friends. It’s great for listening live while you’re out and about. So, show the love, and share the love, and search Community Radio Plus, wherever you get your apps.

Each year singers and artists gather to present a fundraising concert to support 3CR. This year, it will be held at Mark St Hall on Friday 15 September at 7:30pm. Grab your tickets to support local community radio. Five community choirs will be joining forces to fill a night with song. Enjoy songs and tunes from Living Out Loud with Sue Johnson, Sonidos Del Alma Spanish Choir with Iaki Vallejo, Gorani men's vocal ensemble, Carl Pannuzzo's FeelGood Choir and Mixed Drinks with Therese Virtue. For musicians, Music Sans Frontieres, presented by The Boite, and the hosts of other music programs offer airplay and opportunities nowhere else available. Come along and support your local community radio station!

Last week the Beyond the Bars program teams broadcast live from six Victorian prisons. We shared the mic with First Nations women and men across the state for NAIDOC Week 2023. You can now listen back to all the broadcasts and hear the insights direct from First Nations people in the system. We look forward to a day when we don't need to go into prisons to give First Nations people a voice.

Will you support the 2023 Radiothon? The station needs your help to ‘Stay Radical’ and provide a vital platform for the issues that get left behind, and the voices that get silenced. We need the community to 'Stay Tuned' to diverse voices and alternative perspectives in order to create meaningful social change. Please help the station to build and expand this critical media outlet, and encourage others to ‘Stay Tuned, Stay Radical’. Make a donation to our Radiothon today. Any amount makes a big difference, and all donations over $2 are tax deductible. Awesome artwork by Nicky Minus. And THANK YOU for your support. 

This year’s National Volunteer Week (15-21 May) theme is ‘The Change Makers’. This perfectly captures the spirit of our incredible volunteers - from managing reception to creating podcasts, tending to our garden, and producing captivating radio, our volunteers are making a meaningful and lasting impact in our community every day. Volunteering at 3CR is a fantastic opportunity to gain valuable skills, meet like-minded individuals, and make a positive difference in the world. Keen to be a ‘Change Maker’? Get in touch today.

On Monday 1 May we'll bring you the usual rabble rousing and thought-provoking discussions on workers' rights and solidarity actions from 6am to 6pm. Tune in to hear all about the Stolen Wages campaign, indigenous solidarity, gender justice and solidarity, training and safety at work, creative communities, unemployment, underemployment, the gig economy, international solidarity and much more.
