Refugee Radio

Refugee Radio is a charity registered in England.

Quick Facts Founded, Founder ...

The organisation broadcasts a radio programme in partnership with Radio Reverb, a local radio station in the South East. The programme is syndicated on various internet radio stations[1] and is based on the long-running BBC Radio 4 programme, Desert Island Discs.[2] Instead of interviewing celebrities however, it features refugee “castaways” and plays the music they brought with them to the UK.[3][4][5] The project also contributes to the Refugee Week internet radio broadcasts and the International Migrants Day broadcast.[6]

Their adviser is Alexis Condon, a producer on the Today Programme.
