Radio Lewes is a micro-webcasting initiative of disabled people engaged with the Oyster Project, a charity founded by and run by disabled people and based in Lewes, East Sussex (UK Charity 1132007)
IP Radio gives our members a creative voice.
Radio Lewes also provides a window into the world for our members, we visit places and events in Lewes so that members who can’t, get to hear and see what is available.
Radio Lewes delivers work experiences and engages members of the Oyster Project in creative activities and focussed endeavours based around online IP ‘radio’ broadcasting. Members taking part are able to develop technical knowledge, improve literacy and work towards greater numeracy. The entire station has been set up by members and is maintained and developed by members. The broadcast content is also created by members of the Oyster Project.
Radio Lewes can be listened to online via any computer, on web equipped mobile phones such as the iPhone, on iPods with a web connection such as the iPod Touch, or via an Internet capable DAB radio. We have a number of different channels each with distinct content including our internet radio channel for members of the Oyster Project where we broadcast information and news about our activities within the charity.
Internet Radios, what are they?
The latest generation of radios are capable of receiving many stations, conventional FM via radio waves, DAB and DAB+ via a digital radio signal and now IP radio (Internet radio) via a wifi connection from your broadband. IP radio opens up an entire world of free radio stations including ours and works just like radio as we all know it. IP radio is both worldwide and very, very local, a bit like Lewes then….
