Thornbury Radio

Thornbury Radio serves Thornbury and its surrounding area in South Gloucestershire as a not-for-profit community broadcaster. The station is operated by Thornbury Media Community Interest Company and aims to reflect the town closely through relevant programmes, local voices and frequent attention to nearby activity. Its Your Choice, Your Voice identity places participation at the centre of that purpose.

Music is accompanied by Thornbury News, Community Spotlight and Thornbury Thinks. These strands give local organisations and residents opportunities to explain their work and interests. The station promotes voluntary groups, highlights artistic and cultural talent and encourages involvement in sport, connecting entertainment with the people contributing to town life.

Chris Criddle presents Thornbury Breakfast, Greg Robinson contributes the mid-morning programme and Chris Robinson takes the afternoon. The station has documented local gatherings including Rockhampton Folk Festival, the Berkeley Show and Tytherington May Day Fair. Its stated aims also include reducing social isolation, sharing environmental information and helping listeners find energy and cost-of-living advice. These subjects extend its town-centred remit beyond entertainment and event promotion.

Practical information includes local weather, traffic and public transport, while event listings follow activities around the area. Health, education and opportunities for young people also form part of its stated community aims. Thornbury Radio's focus remains deliberately close to home, offering music and company alongside information that reflects the concerns and contributions of its own neighbourhoods.
