About This Station

**ALL FM 96.9** is a community radio station based in Manchester, UK, branding itself as "The Real Voice of Manchester." Run "by the community, for the community," it relies on over a hundred trained volunteers who produce and present a wide range of shows, including foreign-language programmes and broadcasts by and for carers, people with mental health issues, disabled people, and older and younger listeners. The station trains more than a hundred new people each year, offering radio and podcasting opportunities to individuals, groups, and organisations. It has won the National Community Radio Award for Radio Station of the Year twice (2019 and 2024)—the only station to do so—and received The Queen's Award for Voluntary Service in 2020. Broadcasting in multiple languages alongside English, its schedule can be streamed live online, with catch-up services available.
