type but this is not the case.

Who will be the next Chris Moyles or Nick Grimshaw? Well wouldn't it make you proud to think it were your son, daughter, dad or mum hosting the nations favorite radio show? And all as the result of starting at regional level on Peterborough City and Youth Radio? What does the future hold for PCYR? Well, PCRFM has been broadcasting on FM since 2016 so PCYR is no more, Instead the name of this station was changed to PCR Extra and contuse to broadcast online as the sister to PCRFM with all the same ethos of the the original station.

PCR extra was originally known as ‘Peterborough Youth Radio’ and began producing quality radio to the Peterborough region in July 2012 with youth presenters generally at the helm. Naturally, the assumption would be that our listeners would all prove to be of the younger generation and their musical choices befitting their genre type, but this is not the case. Each and every presenter had their very own style and cater for a wide range of tastes - not just youth music but cultural, topical and satirical shows that invite audiences from all ages of the spectrum. So no, PYR was and is not just a youth radio station but indeed a station that encourages local people of all ages in getting involve with professional experienced radio producers and presenters whom encourage learning skills likely to be found in major radio stations across the country.
So how do we achieve this? Well, the answer is simple - through benefactors and sponsors. The kindness and generosity of our benefactors helps us to continue the advancement of the station and indeed the learning skills our aspiring young and old presenters will require whilst our sponsors allow us as a station to continue running through a non-profit status. Yes! Nobody is paid! Not even the professionals behind the scenes and those passing on their skills. And we can only do this through your continued, and extremely valued, support.
Who will be the next Chris Moyles or Nick Grimshaw? Well wouldn't it make you proud to think it were your son, daughter, dad or mum hosting the nations favourite radio show? And all as the result of starting at regional level on PCR extra?
Our history started in 2012 with the formation of Peterborough Youth Radio. In April of 2012 we merged with Peterborough City Radio – Peterborough FM – Radio Peterborough to form Peterborough Community Radio. Our aim was to combine all our resources, setup and maintain a full time FM community station for Peterborough. In May of 2017 PCRFM started broadcasting on 103.2 mhz across the city and we and maintained the service ever since.
PCRextra is a extra online service from Peterborough Community Radio, and is useful for training and giving individuals the experience and fun of being on the radio.
What does the future hold for PCRextra? Well we are Proud that we have had over 200 peresters pass through our station some of which have gone to college, university and have embarked in media as a carrier. We hope we will be able to help others to do the same. Small scale DAB is on the horizon and soon we hope you will be able to ear us on your car radios without relying on the constraints of the internet.
Let us know what you think, join in, and we do hope you enjoy our programming!
