Radio stations in Yeovil

Yeovil is a town in South Somerset and a centre for communities across the surrounding district. Radio with a Yeovil connection may serve the town itself and neighbouring settlements, following the relationships between their residents, organisations and businesses. This category identifies that local purpose rather than the complete area in which a signal can be received. Local programmes can bring together music, news, sport, interviews and community information. Town events and the activities of charities or voluntary groups provide subjects that connect listeners with everyday life nearby. A station based in Yeovil may also discuss matters affecting other South Somerset towns without becoming a general service for the whole county. The category is open to different programme formats and kinds of broadcaster, provided that the Yeovil relationship is explicit and substantial. It does not imply that every programme concerns the town or that a station uses only one listening platform. Wider regional services are grouped here when they have a real local identity, rather than solely because they reach Yeovil listeners.
