Local radio
Alongside the commercial enterprise of the local newspaper, The Mearns Leader, Glenbervie has a local community radio station, Mearns FM. Broadcasting from nearby Stonehaven in the Townhall, Mearns FM helps to keep Glenbervie up to date with local and charity events, as well as playing some music. Staffed completely by volunteers, Mearns FM is run as a not-for-profit organisation, broadcasting under a Community Radio licence, with a remit to provide local focus news events and programming. It is funded by local advertising and local and national grants. Mearns FM has one of the largest listening areas of any Community Radio station owing to the Mearns' distributed population. Mearns FM was set up to try to bring these distant communities together.
