The Residents

An MVFM 96.9 Radio Program

Author: Meander Valley Community Radio, Inc.

"The Residents" is a weekly mens radio program, produced and recorded by male residents living at Aged Care Deloraine, in regional Tasmania. Each week the men come together and record themselves singing favorite 1920s to 1950s classics, memories, stories and jokes with a selection of their favorite music with the support of a registered music therapist. The program is broadcast weekly on the Meander Valley Community Radio Station (MVFM) on 96.9FM every Sunday afternoon and rebroadcast on Thursday mornings. Any person living north of the Western Tiers from Devonport to Launceston can tune into the broadcast with an FM receiver. To date, the program has involved 17 male residents, 8 of which are in their nineties, the 20 member aged care choir, various community representatives who have volunteered to either perform or to be interviewed and volunteers from the radio who support with final editing before the program is aired.
