Nottingham student station declared best of the year

By | Published on Monday 15 November 2010

So, the University Of Nottingham’s student radio station is the best, in case you wondered. And that’s not me saying that. Obviously I’d say Edinburgh’s Fresh Air is the best, but that’s just me being nostalgic. But, according to judges of the annual Student Radio Awards, held in London last week, URN presented the best station package this year. So, well done them.

Here’s the full list of student radio winners.
