We invited applications for licences to provide community radio services in the areas for which we received expressions of interest, and which are not within the coverage area of an existing licensed community radio service.
Invitation of applications
Ofcom invited applications for services operating on FM only. No areas were excluded on the basis of frequency availability, but this does not indicate that a suitable frequency will be available in every area. The closing-date for receipt of applications was 3pm on Thursday 27 July 2017.
