About Scratch Radio

Scratch Radio is Birmingham’s favourite student station. Broadcast 24 hours a day from studios based in Perry Barr, we are the only join student and community radio station across the country.

Everyone at Scratch is a volunteer: from the presenters through to the management team. We welcome anyone to get involved with the station, with a range of opportunities open to everyone – whatever your age or experience.

Our studios are based inside the Birmingham City Students’ Union building on the City North Campus of Birmingham City University. Here we have a fully equiped studio with editing facilities, and share office space with the other Media Groups.

Why not pop in to the Media Centre and see what we’re all about!

We broadcast 24/7 on campus and online – we are the voice of BCU students. Make sure you check out our schedule and Schedule. Plus if you want to get involved, check out our join pages.
