- Gateway_97.8 abstract "Gateway 97.8 (formerly branded as Gateway FM) is the brand name of a UK-based Community Radio station serving the areas of Basildon and East Thurrock. It succeeds Radio Basildon, a popular cable service that broadcast on Rediffusion channel A from the late 70's until the eighties and gave Basildon its first taste of really local radio. Some of the broadcasters from that cable station contribute to the area's latest local radio, although this time on FM.'Gateway FM' ran six 28-day RSLs (restricted service licence broadcasts) on 87.7(FM), as well as on-line simulcasts (simultaneous webcasts) over the three years prior to the Company securing its full FM licence.The Company was officially formed on 29 June 2006 as Gateway Community Media Community Interest Company (CIC). Having applied successfully to the industry regulator (Ofcom), the Company was awarded a Community Radio broadcast licence for five years and launched its re-branded Gateway 97.8 service on the 25th of September 2010, wit h the new branding reflecting its frequency of 97.8. The station had been committed to a policy of delivering social gain from its earliest days. By the time it secured its 5-year licence it had already delivered an extensive series of educational courses involving various local schools. Once on air full-time, the Company secured recognition as an accredited centre for OCN and NCFE in order to be able to deliver nationally recognised media skills courses.Since its launch, the station has expanded its membership and secured wider recognition locally and nationally. It was the proud recipient of a The Big Society Award in 2011. This prestigious award is in the gift of the Prime Minister, David Cameron. Indeed, he broke away from other pressing duties while on a pre-Christmas visit to Afghanistan to announce the Award.In 2012 the Company was awarded The Queen's Award for Volunteering in recognition of the dedication of its members in the service of the wider community. This unique UK National Honour was created by Her Majesty to mark her Golden Jubilee in 2002 and to recognise the outstanding contributions made to local communities by groups of volunteers. It has the equivalent status to that of a single MBE granted to an individual and sets the national benchmark for excellence in volunteering, with the work of those awarded being judged to be of the highest standard.Gateway 97.8 provides showcase opportunities for local musicians to get heard by a wider audience through its hourly 'Local Artist' slot from 7am to 7pm each weekday. Similarly it offers free promotion opportunities to local charities, self-help groups, clubs, societies and other not-for-profit socially beneficial enterprises. It also offers a range of radio related courses and opportunities, in conjunction with other organisations as well as directly for members. Membership fees are pegged at just £1 a year in order to make membership benefits readily available to all.As a local station, it has a distinct focus on covering local news, views, events and opportunities. In addition to its broadcasting, including weekly features from its studio within a local school, its outreach activities involve the volunteers on the 'roadshow' that goes out to many community events throughout the year in order to provide music, entertainment.In addition to a string of interviews with notable people, Pat Sharp, Tony Blackburn and Michael Barrymore have all presented shows on the station.,".
