Calon FM is Wrexham’s own community radio station. Since March 2008 the station has built up its schedule to offer a wide range of shows for all tastes.

The station is growing every day and in 2009 was nominated for a Times Higher Education Award for its work within the community supporting local schools and charities.

Calon FM is a social platform, which will enable all communities to educate, entertain and produce relevant programming to truly reflect the full diversity of the many different social and ethnic groups in Wrexham and beyond.

The philosophy of Calon FM is to provide a channel to encourage and facilitate the empowerment, life long learning, development and generation of our community, regardless of race, gender, age or disability. We will achieve this goal through the inclusive development of training, community interaction, new media, communication, and education.
