TLRC sell Isle Of Wight Radio

By | Published on Thursday 20 August 2009

The Local Radio Company – now controlled by rivals UKRD of course – has sold off another of its stations, this time Isle Of Wight Radio. That station has been subject to a management buyout, and will be run by former TLRC Area Director Claire Willis and current Programme Controller Paul Topping.

Willis said this: “While much of the industry is being merged, networked and is losing its sense of community, Isle of Wight Radio will be building on its recent success in returning to what matters most. The team has already worked very hard to regain its local standing and the recent RAJAR results show the station is already winning back listeners”.
