EMERALD-based community radio station 3MDR is calling on residents and regular listeners to have a say.
As 3MDR is set to prepare its new strategic plan, the producers and volunteers want to hear from you.
Ren Cuttriss Garry from 3MDR said anyone could submit their input, which would help shape the direction of the station.
“Whether you listen in 24/7, once a week or never, we want to know your thoughts about your community radio station,” he said.
Two community engagement sessions have been planned.
The first will be on Thursday, 6 October, at the Olinda Community House from 7.30pm to 8.30pm.
The second will be on Saturday, 8 October, at the Belgrave Library from 1pm to 3pm.
If you can’t attend the sessions, simply visit www.3mdr.com and fill in an online survey, or collect a hard copy version from your local community house or hub.
The survey will be open until Sunday, 9 October.
