A Community Radio Station that Serves the Community
At GDR, our community is our heart and soul. We are always thinking of new ways to entertain while we support and assist you at the same time.
To serve you better, we have opportunities for not-for-profit and politically non-aligned community groups to become station members.
So, what’s in it for you? Well, we’re glad you asked.
Your community group will get to promote and publicise activities, events, and endeavours on air regularly.
As a community group member you will receive all this for only $100 per annum.
You can download the Community Group Membership Application Form (pdf) which is the same as our Membership Application Form.
If you would like to know even more about this membership please feel free to drop a line at mail@goldendaysradio.com or by post to:
