Radio Hawkes Bay - AM 1431 - Hastings

Community Access stations are spread all around NZ with wide coverage of the following regions: Auckland, Waikato, Hawke's Bay, Taraki, Mawatu, Kapiti, Wairarapa, Wellington, Nelson/Marlborough, ... See more Canterbury, Otago and Southland. We are all part of the Association of Community Access Broadcasters (see below for a link to ACAB). We receive fincial assistance from NZ On Air and operate under a special section of the Broadcasting Act (Section 36c) which provides for airtime to be made available to a broad range of non-profit and community organisations which exist for the benefit or welfare of ethnic, religious, cultural, minority, disabled, youth, and educatiol groups, also for those catering for specific women's, men's, and children's interests and concerns. Many of the above groups have little realistic opportunity to broadcast on commercial or mainstream radio, and Access stations give those people a tangible voice to be able to reach out to the community with their own message. Our belief is that anybody and everybody in the community is a potential programme-maker. Our programmes are made and broadcast by the community groups themselves (rather than by professiol broadcasters), and need not sound like what's produced anywhere else. This is the whole point of difference between Access and mainstream radio. This ethos is reflected in Radio Kidppers' well-known catchphrase "putting YOU on air" and is also part of our Mission Statement. ------ Shows: Echo Radio, A Five Minute Mystery, The Week in Parliament, A Woman's World, Adam's Theme Shows, Arthritis New Zealand, Arts On Air, At Close Of Day, Barnardos : Children Come First, Best Of Bluegrass, Big Daddy's Breakfast, Breakfast With Adam, Breakthrough, Carmel Alert, Citizens Brass, Community Corner, Creative Women, Croquet Hits, Crossroad Connection, Double-Take, Early Bird Gospel, Easy Jazz, Folk on Sunday, Get Out Those Old Records, Happy, Healthy and Holy, Helen's Inspirations, Idea Services, Information 4 Disability, Kick-Back Friday, Kidnappers Ceilidh, Kidnappers Kidz, Kitchen Spies, Making Waves, Margaret's Musical Moments, Monday Miscellany, My Favourite Hymns, National Council of Women, Patrick's Pleasure, Pets On Parade, Popular Classics, Radio Active, Reformed Church, Saturday Smorgasbord, Smooth Grooves, Starry Nights, Sweet Inspirations, Swing and Sway, Tevita's Tongan programme, Thanks For The Memories, The Hot And Spicy Show, The Mormon Hour, The Next Episode, The Starving Artist, Theatre Themes, Upload !, Way Out West, Wednesday Country Afternoon, Well Blow Me Over with a Feather, Women’s Voices, Women's Refuge, Work and Income, World Music ----- Hosts: Big Daddy, Ray Gerbes, Sally Gardiner, Dr. David Schuringa, John Redman, Robyn Park, Geoff Herbert, Patrick Dingemans, Fred Twyford, D J Static, Gary Sparks, Aroha Thompson, Morris J, Gordon Hannon, Lionel Priest, Trevor Ruffell, Karla Jurczakowski, Nigel Latta, Trent Mabbett
