See if you can spot anyone you know! The video features amongst others, some of our presenters, town Firefighters, Police, The Dorset Youth Marching Band, local tradespeople and some dancers from local theatre company! Go on, have a look and see who or what you recognise!

It's FM 94.6!
16th October 2021 was the day that Radio Wimborne went live on 94.6FM after being an online station for 8 years. We are proud of all our supporters, sponsors and volunteers for helping make this happen. We're looking forward to the next 8 years!
FM Coming Soon!
Having been online since January 2014, getting our FM licence last year was fantastic news. For the last year we have been planning and fund raising to make the dream come true and we're nearly there! Just a few more bits to add and a tick in the box from Ofcom and we're away!! We will be coming to a radio in your kitchen and car very soon.
Covid-19 and Radio Wimborne
The Radio Wimborne studio was locked down following government guidelines in March 2020. Most presenters accepted the challenge of not having a studio by constructing and recording their shows from thier own homes. They are then sent in via the wonder of the Internet where our technicians schedule the shows via a remote link.
UPDATE Aug 2020. The studio is gradually being brought back into use by inviting presenters to resume their allocated live slots but only by conforming to very strict guidelines of social distancing and sanitising routines. Guests are strictly forbidden currently but we hope to back to normal as soon as we can.
