Radio 4 to broadcast fundraising appeal

We were delighted recently to receive the news that we had successfully bid for a broadcast appeal on Radio 4. The BBC has been broadcasting appeals for individual charities since 1927 and today BBC audiences raise an average of £70million annually which benefits charities from across the UK.

On Sunday March 1 2009, Bowel & Cancer Research will broadcast its appeal to listeners of Radio 4. Monies raised will go into our VITAL Lives appeal through which we aim to increase our research funding to £1million by 2013.

Not only will the appeal raise vital funds for our work, but with around 9.5 million people tuning into the station, the potential to increase awareness of the charity and our work is huge.
