Working with Government, parliamentarians and Ofcom to secure the best operating environment for commercial radio
Radiocentre’s policy team represents the UK commercial radio industry directly with Government, parliament, regulators and other industry bodies. We work to raise the profile of commercial radio and highlight key issues, through evidence-based reports, briefings and events that showcase the benefits that our industry provides to listeners, local communities and the wider economy.
The Radiocentre Advisory Group represents the interests of commercial radio stations and meets on a quarterly basis to discuss a wide range of issues that impact the industry. Radiocentre also act as secretariat to the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Commercial Radio – a group of cross-party parliamentarians with an interest in the radio industry.
