Plus we celebrate our proud history of union affiliation, Indigenous solidarity and our role in supporting and growing community campaigns both locally and overseas.

Join the Resistance - Save Community Radio!

As many thousands of people across the country mobilise against the Abbott government, 3CR Community Radio is asking its listeners and supporters of independent media to join the resistance by donating money to the station during our annual Radiothon. Community radio may have been spared in the Budget - for now at least - but it's still a disaster for workers, Indigenous people, the elderly, young people, students, Medicare, people with a disability and the unemployed.
