In this federal election year, 3CR Community Radio will be asking you to make a political donation that matters. As the two major political parties slug it out - the choice is clear – a donation to 3CR is a vote for 3CR’s progressive alternative coverage of social, cultural and political issues.
To celebrate our 2013 Radiothon, 3CR's Burning Vinyl will be broadcasting live from The Old Bar every Friday in June from 2-4pm
