The last twelve months have shown the strength and value of community radio. Community broadcasters have been a trusted local voice in times of need as they connected community through isolation and natural disaster. Stations have shown themselves to be a linchpin of their communities’ resilience. Throughout recent challenges, stations, staff and volunteers have responded with excellent and innovative programming and events.

The 2022 CBAA Community Radio Awards, is the community broadcasting sector's chance to come together to celebrate collective and individual achievement. This year's awards saw over 300 excellent entires across 30 categories, giving our judges a tough task in selecting this year's winners.
