​​Member benefits
Ten FM wants you to benefit from your application.  By being a Ten FM member you will have access to occasional special station draws - your opportunity to win great prizes. Members are offered free announcements for garage sales, buy and sell, and other personal announcements.  Membership is your key to station training if you want to experience what it is like to be a presenter. Maybe you are drawn to helping with the management of the station. Membership is a prerequisite if you wish to nominate for a position on the committee of management.

What's in it for Ten FM?
An increase in membership will mean a more diverse group of people who the station can engage with on other levels. For instance, members might also want to be part of the volunteer base of the station, perhaps helping with production, administration and so on. It all starts with your membership application.

We are a community radio station and we could not exist without its great team of volunteers, helpers and supporters.

Becoming a Volunteer
Becoming a volunteer at Ten FM is a great way to give back into your community. It's also a great way to make life-long friends and learn new skills in diverse areas. We need help with everything from cleaning to catering, BBQs and broadcasting. There is something to do for everyone - whatever your skills. Maybe you could help with the garden or lawn, reception or filing,  Raffles, market days... the list goes on and on. We are not government funded and we wouldn't be here without our volunteers! We can give you full training in any area of interest and we are registered with Centrelink as a volunteer organisation. So jump aboard, anyone can volunteer.

How to become an Announcer
Becoming an Announcer is a quick and easy process here at Ten FM but it does involve some prior hands-on training. To become an announcer just email us about your interests using the application form that can be downloaded at the bottom of this section, or call the station during business hours on 02 6736 3444. You need to become a member to be covered by insurance & to use the station equipment. If you're focused, love music and can sit still for an hour or two, radio could well be for you!
​

How Do I Benefit
Becoming an Announcer could be your first step (and a smart move) towards making it "big time" in the media industry. Ten FM has seen over twenty local announcers move to commercial radio & TV, and as much as we would like them to stay with us - we also feel proud to know we trained them and started them off. So by volunteering and by becoming an announcer you learn valuable skills to kick start your career in the media industry. Even if you’re not interested in a career in radio, it’s a great way to make lifetime friends and it also doubles as a great hobby. Become a local identity and major contributor to a vital source of information & communication in the wider listening area!
