URY set to hit nation’s airwaves
University Radio York is to be broadcast on national BBC Radio 1 over the May Bank Holiday.
The prestigious broadcast has been awarded after the independent radio station won Best Student Radio Station 2005 at the end of last year with a large amount of members from the past and present attending the ceremony held in London’s Covent Garden. The show will be live on air from 4am-7am on Monday 29 May in the slot usually taken by JK & Joel.
URY, the oldest independent radio broadcaster in the country, is renowned for its wide-ranging coverage of music, news and events and is broadcast all over campus.
The pioneering station began its life as a student hobby in 1967 and is run fully by students promising to give “exactly what they want to hear.” This includes their popular show source@six covering a wide range of local, national and international news.
