In 2013, Ujima Radio revised its commitment to Ofcom.[1]
Programming
The station provides a popular and accessible range of programmes designed specifically to meet the needs of the African-Caribbean and other BME communities in the specified areas of Bristol. A broad spectrum of appeal ensures strong community support and participation. This includes news, arts and cultural programmes made by the community for the community. Plus training in radio production and media skills to support people living in areas of high deprivation, many of whom have been excluded from school and whom are Not in Education, Employment or Training.[2]
Awards
Ujima Radio and BCFM joined forces in 2013 to launch the One Love Breakfast Show, a joint venture which broadcasts across both stations during weekdays, and in the same year was awarded ‘The Best Idea Into Action Award’ from VOSCUR. [3]
