Having had confirmation that (subject to final approval by Ofcom) the broadcast licences for 107.3FM in the Lincoln area are to be transferred we are reaching out to the community as a community asset to help us secure the funding needed to get the project underway.
Witham Radio, as we will now be known, will provide not only the local community of Lincoln with a voice, a place to showcase the local area and to facilitate training and learning opportunities. It will also be a place to encourage discussion and debate. This will also provide an educational platform for youngsters from all levels and background of education to gain experience of broadcasting, industry experience and transferable skills.
To do this we need some support in the short term to get us up and running. We are asking for support be that donations or spreading the word about this exciting future. We understand times are difficult so everything donated will be appreciated. This will go towards potential premises, licence fees and day to day running costs, so everything given will help towards something.
Fund raised from this will help us to launch the station and start providing the services we believe are needed for the Lincoln community. It's worth noting that the core management between them have over 100 years of broadcasting experience, and so are well informed on what it will take to get this off the ground.
This is a long journey and we have passion, determination and experience to showcase what Lincoln has to offer
