Getting Involved
Belfast 89 reflects local activities and issues, with a mix of live guests in the studio or on the telephone, and regular contributors. Like what you hear? Then why not join us on a voluntary basis and help out!
There are a number of on-air and off-air roles available and full training will be provided. If you’d like to become involved, please email mail@belfast89.com.
Volunteer roles available
🎙
Presenters
Presenters and co-presenters should be engaging and positive people with a good sense of humour, knowledge of the Greater Belfast area and its people, and an ability to relate to an older listening audience. A clear speaking voice, good time management, research skills and an interest in and understanding of 60s and 70s music.
🎧
Producers and co-producers
Producers should have the time to commit to developing the show, researching local events and activities, and organising and preparing interviews. Some experience of producing a radio show would also be useful. Producers should be well organised, with good research and communication skills.
