The MMU Radio Story So Far

Student radio at Manchester Metropolitan University started in the 1990's with the award winning Storm FM, a joint venture between MMU, The University of Manchester, UMIST and Salford University. Unfortunately, due to financial difficulties, Storm was forced to close in March 1998 and for almost a decade MMU was without its own radio station.

That all changed in 2006 when a group of intrepid MMU students founded a radio society and resolved to bring student radio back to the University. Over the next year this team of dedicated individuals sacrificed much of their valuable drinking time to work on the project and, with a little help from some friendly university staff, successfully launched MMU Radio on 15 September 2007.

MMU Radio is now Manchester’s newest student radio station, broadcasting over the internet 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. More importantly it’s your radio station so if you have any comments or suggestions about our programming please feel free to drop us a line at feedback@mmuradio.co.uk.

Alternately, if you’re a Man Met student and would like to be part of the MMU radio revolution get in touch via recruitment@mmuradio.co.uk.

Hope you enjoy the shows.

Tired of Waiting?

We're ironing out some technical problems with the most important part of the website ... listening to the shows! When those problems have been sorted then we will launch the new website with immediate effect. Hopefully that will be by the end of this week, but if it takes longer then we'll let you know!
