The team will be “developing its schedule, broadcasting more regularly until we are running a 24/7 service and ultimately becoming an integral part of the fabric of the city,” Jez said.

“Two Rivers Radio will be widely regarded as a valued element within the city of York’s local media mix.”

They are actively encouraging people to contact the station if they wish to get involved. Jez said: “No experience required, although don’t let having experience put you off!

“We need people with experience to bring that and support those members that don’t.”

You can get in touch via the website – see the details in the panel above.
