Full Matchday Live Minisite

Bailrigg FM is your campus radio station. It's run entirely by student volunteers, and you can get involved!

Any member of LUSU can join the station (including students and staff), and get a weekly show, not to mention the opportunity to get involved in our news, sport, music or technical teams!

Whatever you're into, there's something to get involved in, from presenting a talk-based show (dicussing soaps, politics, sport, whatever you like!), educating the listeners about your favourite genre of music, running the station's computing or audio engineering infrastructure, commentating live on Lancaster City FC, or reviewing the latest new music before it hits the big stations.

The station's managed by a group of students too, and most members of LUSU are eligible to run for a position on the management committee.
