Radio Scarborough

Scarborough's community radio station

Radio Scarborough is a volunteer-run community radio station serving Scarborough, Filey and the surrounding Yorkshire coast with local presenters, varied music and genuinely local broadcasting. It is built around the area it serves, which gives it a stronger identity than generic online stations that happen to mention a town name in passing.

Radio Scarborough is the kind of station community radio is supposed to be. The station describes itself as a not-for-profit, independent local service run entirely by volunteers, with local presenters and a focus on Scarborough, Filey and nearby coastal communities. That matters, because it means the station sounds like the area it serves rather than a cheap generic stream with local branding stuck on top.

There is proper history behind it too. Radio Scarborough says it was established in 2012 as an online station before moving onto 107.6 FM in 2022 with a 25 watt transmitter. The FM signal covers Scarborough, Filey, Hunmanby and up towards Robin Hood's Bay, while online listening keeps it accessible beyond the town. For a local station, that mix of FM presence and easy streaming is exactly what you want.

The output is broad enough to stay interesting as well. Radio Scarborough openly says it plays all genres and avoids the same repetitive mainstream playlist, and the presenter line-up backs that up with breakfast shows, soul, blues, club classics, prog rock, 60s and 70s shows, sport and weekend programming. That range gives the station far more character than formula local radio, while still keeping it rooted in Scarborough life.
