A radio station with a real Joie de Vivre has just hit the local airwaves and is geared to enrich the lives of older people across North Lanarkshire. Reshaping Radio, a community online station, has been launched as part of the nationalwide Reshaping Care for Older People (RCOP) programme. A key aim of RCOP is to give voluntary and community groups the resources and backing to enable them to take a leading role in developing and contributing to the support and services their community needs. It's hoped the new station will capture imaginations, as well as provide a platform for local talent across North Lanarkshire.
The beauty of radio is that anything is possible and we've already got a vibrant programme lined up; from music, book and film reviews, story-telling to updates on local supports and events.
We have a team of dedicated volunteers and contributors but we're always looking for new material to fill the show.
We'd urge anyone who'd be interested in participating and contributing, regardless of age, to get in touch.

Young Volunteers between the ages of 14 - 20 are trained as befrienders before joining them online with Harry (Youth Coordinator). The overall aim is to enhance the young people’s confidence and skills through volunteering, and reducing social isolation for older people as well as increasing usage of technologies, the conversation will be on group video call until face to face can return. The project will train, support and provide supervision for young voluteers to lead on delivering the sessions (with support and supervision from the Project Coordinator) for older people, with those invovled shaping the discussion and activity at each session.
At this time the theme of the sessions are split into being very relaxed, organic and over a cuppa (Tuesdays) and a more structured quiz (Wednesdays)
It is hoped that in addition to the positive impact the project will have on residents, the befriending will allow volunteers to build confidence and gain valuable social skills under the support and supervision of the project worker.
