Programming
2RPH has a diverse range of programs to meet the information, entertainment and educational needs of its listenership. From Ageing with Attitude to Health Matters and Parish Pump, Australian Women's Weekly and The Monthly, there is a wealth of content read and produced by the station.
As part of its commitment to improve and expand its program to best suit existing and new audiences, 2RPH encourages new program proposals that demonstrate a high standard of thought, preparation and delivery. It is important to us that the needs of our current and potential ‘community of interest’ are met by presenting a program that is contemporary, informative and unique.
The 2RPH 'community of interest' primarily comprise those with print disabilities, those who lack access to published material, or those whose lifestyles limit time for reading and remaining informed.
Submitting a new program proposal
2RPH welcomes considered and diverse program proposals submitted by listeners, members of the public, or those interested in community broadcasting. If you would like to submit a new program proposal for the station to consider, please review the below steps.

4. Once an outcome has been finalised, you will be notified by the station.
