Who we are for
According to Government sources “nearly half of Tasmanians would benefit from the services of Print Radio Tasmania.”
We are a community radio station providing reading services for people with a print disability. Many Tasmanians are able to benefit from accessing printed information, they would otherwise be unable to realise.
Our listeners include:
Blind and vision impaired people unable to read newspapers and magazines.
Older people who may find it difficult to read smaller print.
People with arthritis or other physical problems who may have , for example, trouble holding a book or newspaper.
People with poor literacy skills who need to keep up to date with what is going on around them.
People who understand English as a second language but cannot read it easily.
Other listeners include those, as an example driving and shift working, who derive benefit and pleasure from a friendly and informative radio presence.
