Through the Community Radio Network, Radio Platfform have become involved in Our Earth Week, a week-long initiative running 20–26 November 2023 where community radio stations across the UK are coming together to promote environmental topics in the run-up to COP28.

Join us for talks, a panel discussion and artistic performances at our latest Radio Platfform event in collaboration with the Community Radio Network, exploring the accessibility of environmental topics for young people.

Radio Platfform’s involvement will also include one live show a day across the week dedicated to exploring a different theme relevant to the natural world.

This will combine Our Earth Week’s goal of increasing awareness of environmental issues and our goal of inspiring young people.
