NTS has announced the launch of a listener support scheme. Starting at £2.99 a month, NTS Supporters membership gives listeners the opportunity to support their favourite shows while receiving perks such as live tracklisting and 20 per cent discount on NTS Merchandise.

The online station introduced the scheme as part of a wider move towards a more sustainable model, with money raised going towards costs associated with running an internet radio station: music licensing, streaming infrastructure and radio production, with an additional 50 per cent directed to NTS residents. It follows on from NTS Friends in 2019, an early NTS support package limited to just 1000 listeners, which sold out in two weeks.

The station has confirmed is has no plans to broadcast behind a paywall or introduce advertising.

Finally, the station has also announced a new batch of resident hosts including Black Midi, Corin, Covco, Erol Alkan, Haruomi Hosono, He4rtbroken, Iasmin Turbininha, Inzane Johnny, James K, Labour, Limp Wrist, Los Hitters, Malibu, Moesha 13, Moor Mother, Mount Kimbie, Nala Sinephro, Rachael Anson, Rosa Pistola, Smithsonian Folkways, Upsammy, Vegyn and Yaej.
