🎉Introducing the new look of the Community Broadcasting Foundation! For four decades, the CBF has been community media’s biggest supporter. The sector we serve has grown and evolved significantly in that time, and so have we. A part of this evolution is our new aesthetic - a refreshed visual identity that reflects our contemporary grant-making practices and continued support for a dynamic and creative sector. Community is at the heart of what we do and how we help community media thrive. In our new logo, you'll find a radio wave in ‘Community’, reflecting our vision of community broadcasting at the heart of every community. Featuring soft gradients and splices of colour, our refreshed colour palette together with varying angles and direction of the gradient speak to the dissemination of information through different voices and the diversity of local stories, news and cultural content that our funding helps to produce.

🌍It's World Radio Day! 📻 As we tune into the airwaves today, we acknowledge and celebrate community broadcasting at the heart of every community around the globe, and the enduring power of #radio to bridge cultures and generations, and to inform and inspire beyond borders. Happy #WorldRadioDay2025!
