Tindle Radio Group
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tindle Radio Group is a Media company which owns stations across the south of the United Kingdom, including the Channel Islands. It has its head office in Great Blakenham in Suffolk.
Kevin Stewart is Tindle Radio's Chief Executive. The rest of Tindle Radio Management Team includes David Lovell, Simon Tims, Lyn Long and Mark Franklin.
Tindle Radio's most recent station launch was for Ipswich and the new licence for Andover is due to go on air next year. Tindle Radio also has a 47% interest in Atlantic FM in Cornwall.
Sir Ray Tindle acquired Island FM in Guernsey in February 1998 and the station became the first building block in what is now the Tindle Radio Group, which owns and manages 12 radio stations. Tindle Radio is a separate company to the Tindle Newspaper Group.
