Streetlife FM

Background

Streetlife FM is a community radio station based in Walthamstow, London. The station runs an annual month-long summer RSL (Restricted Service Licence) on FM and a full time online schedule for the rest of the year. In 2010 Ignite were instrumental in helping Streetlife FM win a five year Community Radio Licence.

Project

Ignite managed the station over a four year period, guiding the editorial output and marketing. In addition all new volunteers were given free training via Ignite's Open College Accredited 30 hour Radio Production & Presenting course.

Ignite also managed the station's website producing editorial and podcasts and launching a social media campaign. In 2008 we ran an outside broadcast from Walthamstow Libary.
