[cma-l] Fwd: Shortlist revealed for the Community Radio Awards 2016

[Richard Hilton]

Amazing shortlist and congratulations to the 30 plus stations that I calculate have been shortlisted.  Shows the amazing depth and breadth of our sector.
Should be a great evening and let’s hope lots of people can stay back after the Conference for this.
One suggestion; next year can we have a category ‘Not so Young Person of the Year’ (disclaimer: I am over 60!).
