Thursday, March 20, 2014, Norwich Evening News 24</b><br><p>A popular local radio presenter and manager has left his role at Future Radio in Norwich after seven years with the station. </p>
<p>Terry Lee, station manager since 2011, was part of
the team which helped launch the station in August 2007 and went on to
become an established voice on air. </p><p>Speaking of the station’s
early days, he said: “I was presenting the Breakfast Show on a full-time
basis and so many people were texting and emailing in to the station,
keeping me company in the mornings. </p><p>“It was brilliant how quickly
listeners embraced the show. Over the years I got to meet hundreds of
the listeners, always lovely, and obviously with great taste in music”.</p><p>Future
Radio is one of most successful community stations in the UK, with
42,000 listeners tuning in monthly, and Daniel Childerhouse, chief
executive at Future Projects, says Mr Lee has played a large role in
this success: “Terry was an integral part of the station’s rise to
prominence and leaves behind a leading community radio station which
continues to broadcast outstanding local programming to the residents of
Norwich and beyond”.</p><p>Mr Lee was also instrumental in expanding
the station’s work with the Norfolk community. He organised and hosted
various Next Big Thing events, showcasing local bands, and in 2009
embarked on a ‘marathon broadcast’ which stayed on air for 27
consecutive hours. </p><p>He worked closely with Refugee Week and Black
History Month to help promote their activities and earlier this year
trained locals to be community reporters on a project named ‘Represent
Radio’. </p><p>Mr Lee added: “It has been an eventful period of my life,
a time I won’t forget in a hurry. Future Radio will always be special
to me for many reasons, but one specific reason was that it introduced
me to my wife. Nellie and I met as a result of her listening to my
Breakfast show in 2008, and now we have a one-year-old daughter,
Primrose. They both sat in with me on my final Future Radio programme
last week, a very sad occasion”. </p><p>Mr Lee is moving on to work with ‘Radio LaB’ at the University of Bedfordshire. </p><div><a href="http://www.eveningnews24.co.uk/news/future_radio_boss_terry_lee_says_goodbye_to_norwich_1_3458557">http://www.eveningnews24.co.uk/news/future_radio_boss_terry_lee_says_goodbye_to_norwich_1_3458557</a><br>
