About Northside Radio
OUR OPERATION
Northside radio is funded by personal subscriptions, listener donations and sponsorship from businesses across Sydney’s North Shore and greater metropolitan area. It is run as a cooperative and managed by a board of up to nine directors. Each director serves up to three years in office, with three directors elected at each Annual General Meeting.
There are approximately 120 volunteers who donate their personal time to keep the station running via activities such as on-air presenting, technical support, program production, book keeping, general administration and even cleaning. Northside has a permanent Station Manager and commission based sales staff.
OUR COMMUNITY
Broadcasting to Sydney’s North Shore, 2NSB FM99.3 (Northside Radio) is the second oldest sub-metropolitan community radio station in Sydney.
We support our community by offering free air time for non-profit organisations and by providing information about local events in our north shore broadcast areas.
Local businesses are encouraged to take advantage of on-air sponsorship opportunities. If you have a product or service to promote to our vast north shore audience, become a Northside radio sponsor by calling 9419 6969 during business hours. We are committed to building and maintaining mutually rewarding relationships with all our sponsors.
