Hayes FM (91.8 FM) is a community-focused local radio station based in Hayes, West London, England.
Audience
The target audience is people living and working within a three-mile radius of
non-commercial - it is not obligated to sell advertisements in order to remain operational. This gives autonomy
with format, allowing a variety of tastes to be accommodated in programming.
History
Hayes FM was launched out of an initiative between Sutish Sharma and local
John McDonnell.[1]
The initiative's aim was to contribute towards engaging the three West London boroughs' different communities.
In 2003, Hayes FM undertook a Restricted Service Licence for one month. In 2004, the station developed accredited training courses, and in November of that year submitted an application to Ofcom for a local radio licence. Hayes FM was awarded a radio operators licence in 2006; it started broadcasting on 1 September 2007.[2]
