Radio stations in Northumberland

Northumberland is the northernmost county of England, extending from coastal communities to inland towns and rural areas. This category brings together radio with a meaningful Northumberland identity, whether a service is centred on one part of the county or addresses a wider local audience. It sits within the broader North East England region. Local broadcasting can reflect the different settings of the county through news, community information, music, sport and conversation. Town services may have strong links to surrounding villages, while rural and coastal communities can bring different priorities to programmes. The category does not imply that every included station serves all of Northumberland equally. The county connection can come from a station's base, stated service area or substantial local programming. Different formats and organisational models are appropriate where that relationship is real. Nearby Tyneside and general North East services are not automatically Northumberland stations merely because their broadcasts can be heard across the county boundary.
