WHAT IS DEAL RADIO?

Deal Radio is a global broadcasting platform based in South East Kent. Founded in 2016 we have taken huge strides, now reaching audiences from all over the world with our eclectic mix of professional quality content made by volunteers.

OUR GOALS

We aim to make sure that everyone who volunteers with us is trained to a professional standard no matter where they start. Even those who have never worked in a creative broadcasting environment will be able to confidently apply the skills they learn to any future endeavours.

“As a retired actor, I wanted to do something creative. Now I interview a wide variety of people from all walks of life and love doing it. To top it all I have made some great new friends“

– Richard Sirot (In My Life)

“Deal radio turned my life around, when I joined Deal radio interacting with the other volunteers made me feel like an important part of something bigger”
