CREN is an informal network of radio stations, producers, sound artists and musicians. We are working to increase the amount of coverage of the climate crisis on community radio, and to giving a voice to the wildlife and plantlife with whom we share this earth.
Our Earth Week 2025 – Please Join us!
“An exceptional initiative.. inspirational!” Peter Rush, Aycliff Radio and Bishop FM.
Our Earth Week is a nation-wide initiative where community radio stations from all over the UK come together for one week and focus their content and output on environmental issues. This is our fourth OEW, and this year our focus is Water. Have a listen to the trailer below to get a sense of what it’s all about!

Talk about the climate and biodiversity on your show
The LA wildfires have brought the climate emergency to the front pages once more, but not for very long. Community radio should be at forefront of keeping our communities informed about what’s happening in our particular areas, and also helping to foster a more profound sense of ourselves as beings in nature! Once you start to look at the world this way, it opens up so many new ways of thinking, and so many fascinating and inspiring conversations.
