Bring back Raw Talent to BBC Radio Leeds
Result:
This petition and the comments posted in it were part of a grass roots reaction that successfully persuaded BBC Radio Leeds to change its decision to stop broadcasting the Raw Talent programme in the Leeds area. From Monday November 26th onwards Humberside's live Sunday edition wil be re-broadcast on DAB into the BBC Radio Leeds area.
Many thanks to all who signed, commented and made direct representations to BBC Radio Leeds. Thanks to BBC Radio Leeds for listening.

We, the undersigned, called on BBC Radio Leeds to restore a high quality transmission of Alan Raw's "Raw Talent" programme in the Radio Leeds area. Over five years the programme's excellent community-building and talent-development work has made a significant contribution to the rise of Leeds and West Yorkshire as a major centre for new music in the UK.
Having helped to establish a highly regarded musical community the programme should now be given the resources to build a significant audience in Leeds and West Yorkshire.
The vestige of a low-fidelity web stream from BBC Humberside in no way compensated for the removal of the FM and DAB options that have been offered in the past.
