About Inspiration FM

Inspiration FM is Northampton’s community radio station, created to represent the town’s diverse cultures and neighbourhoods. Its output blends contemporary music with speech, reflecting African, Caribbean, Asian and Eastern European influences alongside the city’s long‑standing scenes. Presenters share local news, interviews and what’s on information, while specialist shows spotlight genres such as R&B, hip‑hop, reggae, dancehall, bhangra and afrobeat. The station works with community partners to ensure coverage reaches voices that are often underrepresented.

Run by volunteers, Inspiration FM provides training and studio experience for young people and adults, opening pathways into media and building confidence on air. Outreach projects and outside broadcasts help connect with audiences at cultural festivals, sports events and neighbourhood celebrations. Listeners can expect a friendly mix of conversation, dedications and practical updates about services relevant to Northampton. Available on FM around the town and online everywhere, it keeps the focus firmly on local stories and pride.
