The finalists for the 2022 Community Radio Awards have been announced.
This year’s awards ceremony is taking place on Saturday the 19th of November in Bedford, the event will follow the Community Radio Conference which is being organised by the UK Community Radio Network.
Martin Steers, Awards Chair, said: “It’s been another great year for Community Radio across the UK, and as ever it’s been a big challenge for our judges from across the industry as the quality of entries are better than ever, a real testament to all that Community Radio stations do in their areas.”
“We are excited to be working again with the UK Community Radio Network and look forward to hosting the awards after their conference, and the awards would not be possible without the support of the sector, our judges, all the stations and volunteers who enter, and our sponsors helping keep the awards and ceremony accessible costs wise.
