Park Radio given 'stay of execution' with South Norfolk Covid grant
Published: 19:00, 31 January 2021
A Diss community radio station has been rescued from the brink after securing a £2,000 grant from South Norfolk Council.
Park Radio, which has been broadcasting to residents in the Norfolk and Waveney Valley region for little over a decade, secured the vital funding this week.
The station has suffered devastating financial losses since the pandemic began, with advertising revenues dwindling and community events restricted.

The additional restriction grant – which is offered to businesses that have been heavily impacted by the virus, without necessarily having to close – will assist with running costs at the station, which operates out of Diss Youth and Community Centre, in Shelfanger Road.
