2RPH 1224 AM live

2RPH is a radio reading service in New South Wales. It broadcasts on 100.5 FM in Sydney and Newcastle and 93.3 FM in Wollongong under the call sign 2RPH, on a community licence covering much of the state, and its slogan is "For people who love to listen". On this page you can listen to 2RPH live online, free and without an app.

Radio for people who cannot read print

2RPH is part of Australia's Radio for the Print Handicapped network. It reads newspapers, magazines, books and other printed material aloud for people who are blind or have low vision, people with a physical disability that makes holding a newspaper difficult, people with a learning difficulty, and others who cannot easily read print.

What you can hear

Volunteers read the day's newspapers, including national and local papers, as well as magazines on many topics — from health, science and gardening to travel, food and the arts — plus short stories and book readings, community information and programmes in languages other than English.

Volunteer readers

2RPH relies on hundreds of volunteer readers, producers and technicians, and it is supported by donations, grants and sponsors.

For everyone

Although it is designed for people with a print disability, 2RPH is enjoyed by anyone who likes to listen, including older listeners and people who want the news read to them while they do other things.

The RPH network

Similar services exist in other states, such as Vision Australia Radio and 1RPH in Canberra, and you will find them on this site.

Community radio

Australia has one of the world's largest community radio sectors, with hundreds of not-for-profit stations run largely by volunteers and supported by their listeners, sponsors and grants. They give airtime to local voices, local music and local information that commercial radio rarely reaches, and they are often the only station made in their own suburb or town.
