Click gets an FM voice

Our award-winning Click radio station has joined forces on the airwaves with Community Voice FM.

Shows presented by students from Click’s studio here on the University campus, which can currently be listened to online via www.clickteesside.com, will now also be broadcast to radio listeners through Community Voice FM on 104.5fm.

Click’s two-hour breakfast show will air live across Teesside on Community Voice FM from 8.00am to 10.00am along with a drive time show from 5.00pm to 7.00pm weekdays.

Specialist music shows will also be broadcast by the Click team on Wednesday and Saturday evenings direct from the Community Voice FM studios.

The broadcasts launched on Community Voice FM on Monday 1 February.

Maurice Dezou, of Middlesbrough based Community Voice FM, said: 'We serve a diverse multi-cultural community. This partnership offers the students a chance to work with the community while gaining experience of working in our FM radio studio. We decided to link up with the University to provide another platform to serve the community, as the student population is a large part of this area’s community.'

Students get actual FM broadcasting experience Dominic Dunn, Click’s Station Manager, said: 'The partnership between Click and Community Voice FM is a fantastic opportunity for our students as it’s giving them actual FM broadcasting experience.

'The University already has strong links with the local community and we feel this partnership just serves to strengthen those links. Click has grown from strength to strength over the two years of its existence, serving the University community with news, entertainment and of course music. This is just another step in the right direction.'
