Following on from successes in both 2017 and 2018, Erewash Sound is aiming to make it a hat-trick of honours at the 2019 Community Radio Awards.
Last year, the radio station scooped four awards from six nominations at the event held in September in Sheffield. whilst in 2017, four nominations led to top three category honours.
During the 2018 awards, Jeannie Nicolas picked up 'Gold' for Young Presenter of the Year, whilst just minutes later, 2017 nominee, Emma Snow, collected 'Silver' for Entertainment Show then 'Bronze' for Female Presenter sparking wild celebrations at the Erewash Sound table in the auditorium.
Success continued when 2017 award winner Mark Jarvis collected a 2018 'Gold' for Male Presenter of the Year and as a reward for his success, he will be hosting the 2019 ceremony, understood to be held at Media City in Manchester in September.
All three are former students of the Erewash Sound Academy which gave them relevant training in radio presentation and production - none of them had any previous radio experience before joining the Academy.
For 2019, Erewash Sound has collectively given itself a good chance of achieving further success through entries submitted as follows although some entries go up against those from fellow presenters!
