HCR is Halesowen Colleges very own radio station broadcasting on 1386AM and also online. We broadcast a wide range of programming from chat to the latest music and chart shows. We are situated at Halesowen College in Block 2 in the AV suite on the first floor.

HCR started back in 1998 as HCFM broadcasting on a loop around the college. As the station grew, more and more presenters have joined the station and it has continued to grow till this day. In 2003, the decision was made to aquire a LPAM licence for the radio station to broadcast on 1386AM.
