Refugee Radio is a charity registered in England.

The organisation broadcasts a radio programme in partnership with Radio Reverb, a local radio station in the South East. The programme is syndicated on various internet radio stations[http://www.refugeeweekradio.net/partners_funders.htm Refugee Week Radio website] and is based on the long-running BBC Radio 4 programme, Desert Island Discs.[http://ww.dontpanicmedia.com/magazine/refugee-radio Don't Panic magazine feature] Instead of interviewing celebrities however, it features refugee “castaways” and plays the music they brought with them to the UK.[http://www.theargus.co.uk/leisure/music/musicpreview/8215429.Refugee_Radio_Party__Volks__Brighton__Jun_15/?ref=rss Local newspaper article The Argus][http://www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/index.cfm?request=c1157664 Brighton and Hove Local Authority website][http://www.refugeeweek.org.uk/InYourArea/South+and+South+East/ official Refugee Week website] The project also contributes to the Refugee Week internet radio broadcasts and the International Migrants Day broadcast.[http://rwradio.wordpress.com/2010/06/07/refugee-voices-from-refugee-radio/ Refugee Week Radio item]
