Tameside Radio, on the up

Tameside Radio is celebrating after receiving its latest listening figures.  

 Independent research, conducted by Tameside Council, shows that 85,000 people regularly listen to the station making it the third most listened to radio service in Tameside.  The station commissioned comparative research for other stations in the area and this showed that only BBC Radio 2 and Key 103 have more listeners.

 The news comes in the same week that the station learnt that it had been nominated for a Radio Academy Nations and Regions Award as North West Station of the Year.  Programme Director, Andy Hoyle, said “Obviously we are delighted.  The team work really hard to deliver a unique sound.  We blend local voices with loads of local information mixed with the best music and a superb local news service.  It makes us really stand out.”

 “We spend a lot of time out of the station promoting it to new listeners and this has really paid off.  Our brand recognition is now 80% which, for a radio station that has been on air for only two years and without an enormous marketing budget, is tremendous.”
