Christmas FM has launched a competition giving one primary school class the chance to officially ‘Switch Christmas On’ when the station returns later this year.
The nationwide contest is open to primary schools across Ireland, with the winning class taking centre stage in the 2025 Christmas FM photoshoot and counting down the station’s return to the airwaves in November. Last year’s winners, pupils from St. Saviour’s National School in Rathdrum, Co. Wicklow, recorded their countdown and enjoyed a day of festive celebrations.
Entries are open until 10am on Monday 22 September, with details available at christmasfm.com/switchchristmason.
Alongside the competition, the station has confirmed the continuation of its fundraising campaign, The Magic of Christmas. The appeal raised €1,000,000 between 2022 and last year, supporting Barnardos, Barretstown, Make-A-Wish Ireland and other children’s charities through Community Foundation Ireland.
The same partners remain involved for the next three years, with the goal of raising another €1,000,000 to support vulnerable children living with illness, bereavement, poverty or neglect. Since first going on air 18 years ago, Christmas FM has raised more than €4 million for charity.
Co-founder Paul Shepherd said: “At Christmas FM, it’s never too early for festive fun – and we’re bursting with excitement to ‘Switch Christmas On’ with the help of one extraordinary primary school class this year.”
The station will be available online from 1 November and on FM from 28 November, subject to licence. […]
A new free one-year academy for emerging podcast and radio creators has been launched by Accent, a production and strategy company founded by former Global, Bauer and Wireless executive James Brownlow.
The Accent Academy is open worldwide and will support a small number of selected creators with 12 months of development, coaching and editorial guidance while allowing them to retain 100% of their intellectual property.
The programme will offer format labs, content clinics, audience and platform strategy, editorial innovation, as well as leadership and creative coaching. James said: “Helping people find their format, grow their audience, and realise they’ve built something meaningful – is not only really important but is what we love doing.”
Accent is based in Manchester and is already working with media companies in the UK and Ireland, focusing on content development, talent coaching and audience growth. It is also helping teams explore how artificial intelligence can be used effectively while keeping human creativity at the centre of storytelling.
James said: “AI is still a blind spot for many. At Accent, we help teams excel in human collaboration – and thrive in human-centred AI environments. Great audio starts with people, not just prompts.”
With connections across Australia, Canada and the UAE, the company is designed to support cross-border storytelling and global collaboration.
