[cma-l] Community Radio Awards

My guess is that there are two awards because       ‘’there are ???’’
just like the World Heavyweight Boxing Crowns       there’s about 4

 

If others decide they wish to run one and in this case it is neither right
nor wrong. I think you describe it as the old waiting for Bus for ages and
ages and then all of a sudden two turn up.

 

I would however like to encourage the CMA and the CRF to talk to each other
and work together as I believe we are all stronger together. Community Radio
Organisations and Community Radio Stations going it alone would be lucky in
a 100 metre dash to get past the starting rope.

 

My question still hasn’t been answered 
.. when are we asking     re:- 8
Million and how much are we as a collective body receiving ?   (if any at
all)

Hi Ed,

 

What do you mean shed light?

 

What in particular do you want to know?

Dear all,
Fine, but... 
I simply repeat my question, which none of the correspondents to date
address: Who can shed light on this situation?

Thanks.

Replying a bit late on all this.

 

The communityradioawards.co.uk are the ones that I am running, and the
deadline closed at the weekend.

 

Its (was?) £5 to enter / submit a nomination, we are about to start
processing the submissions and confirming judges at the moment (so if anyone
on the list offered to get involved watch for an email very soon). We are
running a judge led process for a shortlist and then the Gold, Silver Bronze
will be announced at the awards ceremony which is the same night as the CMA
conference (watch this space for details!),

 

Its worth stating again, that these are not the CMA awards, any whilst they
are 'endorsed' by the CMA, I/We wanted them to be independent and also open
to all CR licensed stations.

 

Why awards? well through long conversations, stations felt they wanted
them.. I believe the sector needs to shout louder about what great work it
does in its communities, and some stations said that being nomination alone
would be something to help raise their profile in their local community, to
note on a grant application or as part of conversations with advertisers /
councils etc.. I see lots of many and different benefits of the awards, and
aside for "blowing smoke" its truly showcasing, celebrating and highlighting
those involved in community radio and the fantastic work they are doing.

 

The awards are very different in various aspects, and it wouldnt be right or
fair for me to attempt to compare them, we have been in communication (and
in fact we started that communication) with the other awards, and are keen
to have a dialog with them, we are currently awaiting a reply from our last
email sent to that effect.

 

We wish everyone the best of luck to those who have entered the awards, and
hope to see lots of you at the ceremony to celebrate community radio.

I heard an interview with the founder of the competing awards to those run
by Martin from CMA. He has tried to communicate and find a middle ground but
was turned away. I almost started another but decided not to before I found
out that there already two. ;-)
