>> Dear Richard

>> I would like to draw your attention to a joint letter sent yesterday to
>> the Prime Minister which is signed by 60 community radio stations including
>> Sheffield Live! 93.2FM. We would appreciate it if you would support our
>> effort to get a fair settlement for community radio in current government
>> consideration of funding for essential public service broadcasting outside
>> the BBC, and the review of the Community Radio Order 2004, that are both
>> part of the Digital Britain review. We would be grateful if you could raise
>> this matter with the Prime Minister and with the Ministers responsible (Lord
>> Mandelson, Stephen Carter and Ben Bradshaw).
>>
>> Yours sincerely
