Audience Priorities 2015/16

Each year the four Audience Councils, for Northern Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales, advise the Trust on priority issues for audiences around the UK.

We have suggested the following issues to the Trust as priorities for audiences in England during the coming year.

  • Consider how best to serve local audiences to address the year-on-year decline in reach and share for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Local Radio.
  • Ensure continued investment and innovation in ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ local and regional journalism and content on television, radio and online.
  • Provide programmes and services which routinely represent the interests and lives of the diverse population and audience in England.
  • Encourage innovation to transform the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½’s offer and range of services for younger audiences, while continuing to provide something for all licence fee payers.
