All FM is a local community radio station serving south and east Manchester and based in the South Manchester suburb of Levenshulme. The station is mostly run by staff and volunteers from across Manchester.

All FM began as the Radio regen project with a three day broadcast under the title Radio Longsight. After the success of Radio Longsight, ALL FM was created, covering the Longsight area and the neighbouring areas of Ardwick and Levenshulme (hence the acronym ALL). Two RSLs were obtained making ALL FM receivable temporarily. In 2002 All FM became part of the Government's 'Access Radio' pilot scheme. ALL FM became an independent organisation and was granted a permanent licence in 2005.cite web |url=http://www.radioregen.org/stations/allfm.html |title=Ardwick, Longsight & Levenshulme (ALL) FM |accessdate=2007-11-09 |publisher=Radio regen ]

Catering to an area described by the founders as "one of the most multicultural outside of London", a wide variety of programming includes The Full Irish, Big T Caribbean Culture and Akram Hour. Multilingual programmes in French, Polish, Portuguese and Hindi are also broadcast.

ALL FM's sister station WFM 97.2 broadcasts to the Wythenshawe area of Manchester a few miles south of the ALL FM target area.
