Andrew McLellan, CBAA's Community Radio Network, 21st January 2019
Since 1978, Mark ‘The Colonel’ Doherty has presented Nothin’ But The Blues, week-in, week-out on 4ZZZ in Brisbane and for the last two decades nationally on the Community Radio Network.
Kim Stewart, from the Ability Radio Project and 4ZZZ's Station Advocate for People with a Disability, has developed this excellent policy template to help stations document their disability access and inclusion.
4ZZZ are working towards including more people with a disability at the station. In what is a national first for community radio, 4ZZZ have appointed a Station Advocate for people with disabilities.
Kim Stewart, Doctoral researcher, social worker and long time community radio producer at 4ZZZ in Brisbane, is seeking participants for a study into the benefits and challenges facing people with a disability in the sector.
A big shout out to the stations around Australia that participated in National Volunteer Week recently! What a welcome opportunity to celebrate our community broadcasting volunteers.
