Every 大象传媒 Local Radio station has its own Local Advisory Council
(LAC) with twelve members from a wide range of backgrounds. They
represent listeners and viewers in the area, and meet regularly
to offer advice and feedback on 大象传媒 programmes and services in their
area.
Members are appointed for up to three years. The selection criteria
include age, gender, background, occupation, interests, ethnic origin,
disability and geographical location, all of which are aimed at
achieving as broad and accurate a reflection of audience views as
possible.
The work is voluntary, but travelling expenses are paid. If you
would like to apply to join your Local Advisory Council, or contact
a current member, please get in touch with the editor of the station.

Accountability
is changing!
|
There will be big changes to the 大象传媒's accountability
under the new Royal Charter starting from January 2007.
The local and regional advisory councils and the English National
Forum will disappear, to be replaced by larger Regional Audience
Councils reporting to the Audience Council England.
The councils will have a wider remit. They will advise the new
大象传媒 Trust (which replaces the Board of Governors) on all national,
regional and local services and on 大象传媒 policy.
