Radio Jcom was formed by a group of community members with broadcasting, media, communal and business backgrounds from a cross-section of the Leeds Jewish community.
Radio Jcom is one of the first dedicated Jewish Internet radio stations outside London and the very first wholly dedicated Jewish radio station in the UK, only one of a handful of such stations around the world, excluding Israel.
Serving approximately 10,000 people across North Leeds, and based at the Leeds Jewish MAZCC Community Centre, Radio Jcom will broadcast as a focal point for all
Initially, Radio Jcom has launched an Internet-based radio station offering web site information and a full service programming schedule for the Leeds Jewish community focusing on Sunday live broadcasting and pre-recorded programming throughout the week except Shabbat. It will soon broadcast on 1386 am and has just obtained planning permission to erect the necessary mast for so doing
Radio Jcom envisages a 24-hour service 6 days a week comprising of a wide range of programmes from music to sport to youth to news, encompassing every aspect of the Jewish community.
Radio Jcom is a totally non-profit organisation and any surplus funds will be reinvested in the station. Local business and communal organisations sponsor or advertise on air and on the web site.
Your Leeds Jewish community station is here. Why not be a part of it?
Radio Jcom serves the whole community with programmes covering all tastes and interests. Please keep checking back to the website to get all the up to date news and how you can become involved.
Radio Jcom now broadcasts on 1386am, with a potential new listenership of thousands in Leeds 17, 8, 7 and possibly beyond. We continually need to add to our merry band of volunteers to present, interview, report, administer and sell on our behalf, and thus help us fill the daily, 24-hour schedule with inspirational local content to make Radio Jcom the best in local Jewish broadcasting. If you feel you fit the bill, and would like to become involved with this wonderful communal project simply email us. This is the ideal opportunity for you to become an integral part of the Leeds Jewish community, in a practical and worthwhile way.
