Salford City Radio

Salford City Radio is live from the Salford city of UK. The radio is popular for their community, rock, alternative and local musical shows. The local music of the city is very enriched and has a long history of them and as Salford City Radio loves their local culture so they broadcasts local programs.

94.4FM Salford City Radio is a community radio station based in the City of Salford, Greater Manchester. It launched in September 2007 after securing a 5-year FM licence to broadcast full-time on 94.4 MHz. The station broadcasts a mixture of community news, music and talk shows from its base at Salford Civic Centre in Swinton.

In many parts of the world, community radio acts as a vehicle for the community and voluntary sector, civil society, agencies, NGOs and citizens to work in partnership to further community development aims, in addition to broadcasting. There is legally defined community radio (as a distinct broadcasting sector) in many countries, such as France, Argentina, South Africa, Australia and Ireland. Much of the legislation has included phrases such as “social benefit”, “social objectives” and “social gain” as part of the definition. Community radio has developed differently in different countries, and the term has somewhat different meanings in the United Kingdom, Ireland, the United States, Canada, and Australia, where freedom of speech laws and defacto realities differ.
