Unity FM

Since its founding on 19 September 2006, Unity FM primarily serves the Muslim community in the United Kingdom. Based in Birmingham, the station is designed as a community radio station and broadcasts on 93.5 FM as well as via DAB in the Birmingham, Walsall and Wolverhampton areas. The programming is heavily talk-oriented and is produced predominantly in English, while also incorporating various languages of the local communities. The content focus is on social issues such as health, education, immigration, family law and business matters, which are covered in shows such as the Immigration Show or the Business Hour.

Unity FM’s daily programming is carried by volunteer staff and combines religious content with life guidance and social integration formats. A regular feature includes religious talks, such as those by Mufti Menk, as well as in-house productions such as the School Run with Shiloh McMillan or the Parenting Hour with Kathleen Roche Nagi. In addition, the station incorporates spiritual formats such as Quran recitations and nasheeds. The station thus serves as a platform for dialogue on local issues and provides a media outlet for topics that shape the daily lives of listeners in the Midlands.
