Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications
Community Broadcasting: Discussion
12:05 pm
Ms. Sally Galiana:
In a recent Red C poll, three out of every four people agreed that community radio gave us a space to tell our own stories, gave a voice to the rarely heard, and shared knowledge and experience. Of every four people, three also felt that community radio reduced isolation. This response was highest among 45 to 54 year olds in town catchment areas. Three out of four people also believed that community radio acts as a vital source of information and reinforces our sense of community. This was highest among 25 to 34 year olds.
