yOur Preston FM will be managing the English language production for a pan-European radio project set up in partnership withEuranet and The Community Media Association.

We will coordinate, aggregate and distribute audio content produced by UK community radio to be broadcast throughout the European Union.

“Producing content for consumption across the EU will be a great challenge and an amazing opportunity to do what we do best on a grand scale. The project will allow us to enable and support local community radio stations across the UK, creating English speaking radio programmes to improve listeners’ understanding of the EU and how it works,” said Richard Lace, station manager at yOur Preston FM.

“This project will particularly broaden listener and volunteer horizons, through better cultural understanding of people from different countries and backgrounds.”

yOur Preston FM is part of community arts organisation yOur Prescap, which develops opportunities for the long term unemployed and other socially disadvantaged individuals.

All of the station’s output is produced by a pool of 350 active volunteers, while a further 1000 have received training.
