We have some significant news to share. After over 15 years of dedicated service to 3CR, and nearly 10 years as Station Manager, Rachel Kirby has announced her resignation. 

Over Rachel’s tenure, she has achieved so much for the station. The role of the Station Manager comes with a huge workload and enormous responsibility, and Rachel has not only built us up, she has also enabled us to thrive. We thank Rachel for her strategic vision and dedication to doing the hard work arm in arm with community. Read more ... 

THIS Sunday is the incredible Gardening Show Radiothon - when you get to support the station AND get great products, experiences, vouchers and more. It’s on from 7.30 til 10am and you can call on 9419 8377 or 9419 0155. Tell your fellow gardeners and set your alarm! You can also make a tax-deductible donation to the Gardening Show by calling or jumping online.

This June we really need your support. Your donation ensures that we remain free of government and corporate influence, and a true voice for the community. Thanks to everyone who has already chipped in - amazing! Our 2025 Radiothon theme is ‘Your Station, Your Voice’ and we need to raise $275,000. 3CR has been with you since 1976, keeping you company with exceptional programs and music 24 hours a day. If you’ve ever enjoyed just a single program, then that’s a great reason to support us with a tax-deductible donation and make sure we're here for you tomorrow.

3CR’s annual Radiothon fundraiser is coming! We need to raise a whopping $275,000 to keep the station afloat and with YOUR help, we know we can. No donation is too small (or big!), and all donations over $2 are tax deductible. 3CR is ‘Your Station, Your Voice’ and we look forward to YOUR donation during June (or earlier if you can’t wait!)
