ROC Radio
What is ROC Radio?
ROC radio gives young people a voice in their community. Locally produced programmes on subjects that matter to the individual are recorded and broadcast on-line through ROC RADIO UK across the nation. This unique collaboration between young people and communities enables those who don’t normally have a voice to be heard – loud and clear.
How it works:
- Young people choose subjects that matter to them
- Guidance from experts in radio techniques
- Social interaction between all those involved
- Skills that are identified and developed are positive benefits of the project.
- Inter-generational possibilities as young interview older community members
- Creating greater community understanding and harmony.
- A counter narrative to carrying weapons and county lines
Why ROC:
- The ability for young people anywhere in the UK to join ‘Our Voice, Our Community’ programme.
- Making local contributions to a truly national on-line radio station is a key feature of the project.
- A central library of recordings will be a valuable resource of young people’s views.
- The same library will be available to professional broadcasters spreading the interviews as wide as possible.
