Student Radio Awards
Revision as of 20:58, 9 December 2014 by Lloyd Wallis (7449) (talk | contribs)
The Student Radio Awards is an annual event hosted by the Student Radio Association. Every year, URY enters itself for several different awards, sometimes winning.
Trivia
- URY regularly loses out to Best Station because URN claim to be better. The majority of the committee justify this with Nottingham being significantly larger, URN having a lot more money, and a part time staff member to run it.
- URY's very own Coco Cole was one of the Voices of the Awards in 2012. A small amount of gratification was to be had when she eventually had to read out URY's Best Technical Achievement submission name.
- In 2013, URY was joint first in Most Nominations with Fly FM, and Most Awarded with Fly FM and URN.
- Harry Whittaker was the first person in living Student Radio Association history that has received 3 nominations in a single year.
