New Community Slot on Saturday Afternoon Live

Do you have a good cause to champion, a charity, organisation or event to promote or perhaps campaign or local issue you would like to talk about on air, on your original local community radio station? Are you unavailable during the week? Does Saturday suit you better?

Well there’s no need to panic any longer as Daniel Piggins is actively searching for great guests from the local community who could do with a helping hand in the form of a bit of time on air either by phone or in the studio and welcomes community groups, clubs, teams, causes and organisations as well as registered charities, event organisers, tourist attractions, concerts and politicians.

Bands and musicians are also welcome, but these may be better catered for by the team on ‘The Hitbox‘ immediately afterwards at 4pm as this new feature is primarily for anyone and everyone who wants there message heard, but can’t come in or do a telephone interview during the week.

If this sounds like you or someone you know then email info@eastcoastfm.co.uk or call 01620826444 and say you’d like to be on Afternoon Live!

FM here we come .THANK YOU for all the letters of Good Wishes and Support

Having now been awarded a full 5 year Community Radio License to cover Haddington and Districts of East Lothian, it just remains for the regulator to issue  an FM Frequency – we now know what it is, but until clearance cannot advertise it, sorry.

The cards and letters, emails and txt messges from all over the County  -and indeed the world  -congratulating our fine ‘team’, I can assure you, were very much appreciated. Letters from Celebrities, businesses, politicians and right minded indivaduals were simply overwhelming. It shows our three years work on the internet and within the Community did not go unnoticed; again, grateful thanks.

It doesn’t stop here though, check ECFM events to see where we can be found ‘out in the Communuity’ for the remainder of 2012 and a whole host of events in 2013. And also watch out for our Launch date early in the New Year.

THANK YOU for all the Letters of Good Wishes and Support. We have received numerous letters of support and good wishes over the last few months of Support and good wishes and good luck for our future THANK YOU to everyone who took the time to think of us here at East Coast FM. Patience is the order of the day and we will continue to support all our towns and villages, businesses, Charities and Organisations, at all the events we are invited to.
