The supply of those means in the hope that facilities offered will bring about a more effective and creative community life, break down prejudice and remove isolation where such isolation has negative results is a primary object of the co-operative. (Rule 13)
The mission of Radio Northern Beaches is to provide opportunities for individuals and groups within the Manly-Warringah-Pittwater area to make programs. As such, every program that goes to air is made by people from the local area. The
co-op aims to encourage many broadcasting to many rather than few broadcasting to many.
Introductory training workshops are held regularly to introduce new members to the radio station.
All members of Radio Northern Beaches are volunteers.
