The Community Broadcasting Association of Victoria has just launched a major Statewide Project in association with the Transport Accident Commission (TAC).

The ‘Get the Message’ Project encourages Victoria’s Community Radio Stations to talk about the issue of Speeding and to produce Community Service Announcements.

The various CSAs will target a general audience as well as youth and non-English speakers in both Melbourne Metro and Victorian Regional markets.

The School of Advertising at a major Victorian University is assisting by reviewing the CSA’s and recommending one from each category for approval by the TAC.

Stations will able to play the final CSA’s appropriate to their audience. CBAV will provide $300 towards production costs to Stations producing each of the 6 CSA’s selected. Three Special Selections will receive $100 awards.

TAC works with community radio

Community radio stations across Victoria are collaborating to establish a world record for the greatest number of radio stations simultaneously playing the same song. Tune in to your local radio station on Wednesday 18th April 2012 at 4.15pm to witness a record. It’s part of National Youth Week. The Chosen song is ‘Family Love’ by Yung Warriors. Check it out here :

If your station wants to be a part of the record, send us an email, and we’ll send you out the instructions and the song. Great prizes to be won!
