Win $200 worth of New World Vouchers
We want your honest feedback, Central FM listeners. We’ve got a quick survey open right now, and if you take part, you’ll go in the draw to win $200 worth of New World vouchers.
The survey closes on January 19th, 2026, and your personal information won’t be shared. It’s completely anonymous — unless you choose to enter the draw, in which case you just pop your email in at the end.
We want to know how you listen, what you enjoy, and what you’d like to hear more of. We won’t name names, but we will talk in-house about common compliments and complaints to help us improve.
And remember — we’re real people reading your feedback.
