Community radio
With over 200 stations in the UK, community radio is booming. Thousands of people with no previous experience are being given the opportunity to produce and present their own radio shows to a focused, captive audience, on a regular basis. The BBC now actively works with community stations to share content and recognises it as a good source for bringing through talent. If you’re looking for on-the-job radio training and you haven’t got involved with your community station, why not? Here’s your chance to find out more. Joining Simon Smith in the studio is Terry Lee, Andrew David and Elonka Soros.
