Get radio ready with Radio Lewisham’s radio training sessions for ages 11-18.
Radio Lewisham gives you the chance to work with industry professionals from across the radio sector in our FREE programme of radio training where you’ll get a crash course in radio production, radio presenting and creating on-air content, and editing shows.
This is a unique opportunity for young creatives aged 11-18, so come and take to the airwaves and develop your broadcasting skills. At the end of the course, you will come up with a show plan and make a demo for your own radio show.
Following the training programme, you will have the opportunity to join the station on a more permanent basis, whether that’s as a presenter, producer, station manager or something else!
