Community Access Media Alliance is the national body for the 12 independently-owned Community Access Media stations across Aotearoa. Our vision is for Aotearoa to have a vibrant, diverse, innovative, and sustainable Community Access Media sector valued for its democratic, community, and cultural uniqueness.
Wanting to be a broadcaster, radio host, content-creator, programme-maker, show-maker, or podcaster? Our 12 stations can help you make your own media. On-air or online, radio is a simple and inexpensive way to talk to your community-of-interest in any language.
Whether you’re a government entity, NGO, non-profit, company, or organisation, we can help you tailor your messages to speak directly and authentically to your target audience – in their language.
Now more than ever, local voices need to be heard. We’re building a more inclusive media landscape — one where everyone has access to create, participate, and thrive. But we can’t do it without you.

Christian thoughts and music, presented by Neville Stevenson on behalf of Village Baptist Church
God didn't let you break is a song to testify about struggle, pain silent battles and the grace of God that keeps us standing when life gets heavy. There may be moments when you feel forgotten or wonder if anyone truly understands what you're going through. But know that God is near. Even when you cannot see Him moving, His presence remains.
Saying the right things. Attending the right church. Following the right rituals. But what if we’re still missing the point? In this episode, Mike and James explore taking God’s name in vain and the gap between religious observance and a life that reflects his character.

We all make judgements, sometimes without even realising it. But have we ever stopped to think about why we judge others, how our assumptions shape the way we treat people, and what we could do differently? In this episode of Beyond Barriers with Jaime, we’re taking a moment to reflect on our own thinking, challenge our assumptions, and explore how we can become more understanding, compassionate, and accepting of others. 🎧 Tune in and take a moment to reflect. This isn’t about pointing fingers at others — it’s about looking inward, questioning our own perspectives, and asking ourselves how we can do better. Because creating a kinder world starts with us.
