On Saturday March 12, 2011, Gippsland FM presenter and board director Michelle Callaway participated in the 2011 World’s Greatest Shave to help raise funds for the Leukemia Foundation.

Michelle is a highly active member of the station. She puts a lot of time and effort into the daily running of the radio station, volunteering her time to man the organisation as well presenting several programs.

Footage of Michelle on the big day is available here. The final tally is still being counted. On behalf of Gippsland FM, Michelle would like to thank all those who donated through the station to this great cause.

Gippsland FM is the local community radio station in the central Gippsland /Latrobe Valley area. The station is situated in Morwell and aims to provide an alternative radio service for the local community.

Abstract
This study provides a snapshot of the community radio sector in Wales, just over ten years since its inception. It does so at a time of economic instability and focuses on issues pertaining to social gain and sustainability. The McLeish (1986) definition of a radio interview as a ‘conversation with an aim’ (McLeish, 1986) is borrowed here, as an analogy with which to explore the ‘conversations’ between the community radio stations of Wales and others.
