The Media
Here are links to the local media services in North Wales. See also this article I’ve written about the changing face of the media in north Wales.
- Television is provided by BBC Wales throughout the area and by BBC North West in eastern border areas. Flintshire, Denbighshire and Greater Wrexham lie within the broadcast area of both ITV Wales and ITV Granada/ITV Central West, and S4C and Channel 4.
- Independent local radio stations in this area include: 105.4 Century Radio, Heart FM (Wrexham, Chester and Flintshire), Heart 96.3 (North Wales coast), Heart 103 (Gwynedd and Anglesey), and Radio Maldwyn (mid Wales; signal particularly strong in Greater Wrexham). Radio City 96.7, Dee 106.3, Signal One, Beacon Radio, Heart 97.1 (Wirral, Merseyside) and other stations are very much accessible in the north-east.
- No local BBC radio stations exist for North Wales, but the national services BBC Radio Wales and BBC Radio Cymru serve much of the area.
BBC Radio Merseyside, Manchester and Lancashire are strong in north eastern areas, with reception of BBC Radio Cumbria in some coastal areas. - Community Radio in this area includes: Calon FM 105.0 (in Wrexham), Radio Deeside (Deeside, Flintshire), Tudno FM 107.8 (in Llandudno) and Wrexham FM
