Three D Radio is 100% volunteer-operated, both on and off air. Our station exists thanks to the time, skills and energy of volunteers who support community radio in many different ways.

You’re welcome to tune in, attend events and get a feel for what Three D Radio is all about before deciding to get involved. There’s a lot more to the station than just music!

 

OFF-AIR VOLUNTEERING

Alongside our volunteer announcers, there are many off-air roles that keep Three D Radio running behind the scenes. Some roles are highly skilled, while others are easy to learn — there are lots of ways to get involved.

We regularly welcome volunteers to help with:

• Production and broadcasting support
• Photography, videography and sound engineering.
• Administration and reception
• Website content, social media,
• Events, fundraising and station activities
• IT, Software, and Building.

Volunteering is a great way to gain real-world experience, build skills, or simply support a community you care about.

ON-AIR BROADCASTING

If you’re interested in becoming an on-air broadcaster, we offer broadcaster training at select times throughout the year.

We also run Elevate Radio, a broadcast training program for people aged 18–30 who live, work or study in Adelaide’s eastern suburbs. The

Delivered in partnership with the City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters, the program typically runs two intakes per year, includes compulsory training and weekly live broadcasts.

Please note that demand for broadcaster training is high. In line with our strategic plan, Three D Radio prioritises people who have been under-represented or excluded from traditional media spaces.
