Join the Helpline
The High Peak Radio Helpline is a free service for charitable and community organisations to appeal for help in a variety of ways - from fund raising to recruitment and more.
If your organisation could benefit, please contact us to organise an appeal to be recorded by someone from your organisation. The appeal should be about 100 words in length.
