10 Years of Broadcasting

Congratulations on broadcasting for 10 years from the famous Crescent Radio studios in the heart of Rochdale.

Yes,  believe it or not, this December, Crescent Radio is celebrating 10 years of broadcasting from the Crescent Centre.   On the 10th December, 1999, Radio Ramadhan Rochdale hit the airwaves with a 30 day licence.  Can you remember those early hazy days?  What do you remember of the presenters over the years?  Has it influenced or change your perspective? Some key achievements over the past 10 years – Full time community radio established in October 2006, 35 volunteers per month, over 300 volunteer hours per month, live broadcasts from 7am-11pm, annual concerts, events, and now, a bi-monthly 16 page magazine: “Ninety Seven”.
