ABOUT US
Essential Radio from Ayrshire College is a 24/7 music-led radio station for staff, students and employers, based in the Kilwinning Campus and launched in June 2022. We received initial funding from the Ayrshire College Foundation.
​
The radio station is available to showcase students’ learning outcomes in any class, helping to enhance student learning in an innovative way across all campuses. It is also available to students across the college who have an interest in broadcasting and who may wish to present a programme.
​
As an additional college activity the station enriches students with music and news of events happening across the campus, supporting and inspiring students during their time at Ayrshire College.
​
We encourage and develop new and creative ways to reach out to our student population, while providing local employers with a direct link to students across all campuses.
