Radio station needs a name say organisers

A group of people with experience in running other community stations have been working behind the scenes to gain support for their project from local bodies such as the town and district councils.

Project leader Daniel Sumpton, of Sleaford, a producer and presenter on Lincoln’s community station Siren FM, said: “We are progressing with the radio station project and would like to ask the public for suggestions for names for the station.”

They were currently preparing to apply for a licence from Ofcom, but without a name they could not set up as an official organisation with a constitution and branding. They could then apply for grants and sponsors and secure business premises.

Suggested names can be sent to the Sleaford Standard offices by email to [email protected] , our Facebook page or to our office at Unit 8, Station Business Centre, Station Road, Sleaford, NG34 7RG. Deadline is noon, March 25, 2016..
