Are you searching for a route into media, but unsure where to start? If you’re over 18 and living here in Cornwall, then the Cornwall Community Media Network is looking for you! We’re starting a Digital Skills Bootcamp which could give you volunteer experience and skills in any aspect of community radio from presenting to social media, becoming a technician and more!

Interested? Come meet us at our meet and greet event on Saturday 25 March between 10:00-13:00. You’ll be able to chat to about the opportunities on offer, ask questions, and register your interest in the Bootcamp.

CHBN have made the shortlist in two categories for the National Hospital Radio Awards 2023.
The station has made the Top 10 shortlist in the categories of "Station of the Year" and "Best Station Promotion" (for our Listener Survey promo). This shows that the station is amongst one of the best in the country.
Some of the team will be travelling to Bolton for the Awards Ceremony in March to see if they pick up Bronze, Silver or Gold in any of the categories. The awards are held as part of the Hospital Broadcasting Association national conference.

The total impact of the Covid restrictions can never be quantified. For CHBN, Truro's Hospital and Community Radio Station, the consequences were not just financial. For nearly three years, only the technical team have had access to our studios at the Royal Cornwall Hospital. Our presenters have been broadcasting from their own mini studios at home.
