Welcome To Radio Asian Fever |
Radio Asian Fever has been very successful in engaging South Asian communities in Leeds. It delivers programmes in English as well as in Urdu, Punjabi, Bengali, Kashmiri and Mirpuri. Its talk shows, competitions and phone-ins attract large audiences. The live shows broadcast on-air and through the internet during the 7/7 attack in London in 2005 and the Harehills riots in 2001 attracted a particularly strong audience response. Talk-ins with MP's such as Shahid Malik and representatives from the police attracted so many calls and personal visits to the station that volunteer staff were hard-pressed to keep pace. Mails to the station were also received from live web listeners in Pakistan, India, New Zealand, Russia, Singapore, Canada, Norway, Austria and Germany.
As well as working for its audiences, the station recruits and trains volunteers in the use of broadcasting equipment, IT and vocals. It supports these volunteers (through training, mentoring and supervision) to research, produce and present their own radio shows. Programming ‘by the community – for the community' is a core value of the station.
