At the age of 17 I began working on my local community station while studying at Kirklees College. Furthermore while also studying at college, I re-founded the student radio station, with new branding and a focus on popular music. I passed my BTEC in Creative Media Production, with a specialisation in Radio in 2012, and began my BA in Radio later that year.<\/p>\n<p>Studying at Bournemouth University has given me the opportunity to expand my network with fellow radio practitioners, as well as get valuable time with professional grade studios.<\/p>\n<p>I thoroughly enjoy presenting radio, whether it is specialist music programming, sports talk or in-field reporting. I have chaired a film panel programme, and I have also made documentaries interviewing members of parliament furthermore I also co-presented a popular lunchtime radio show on the Universities Student radio station, Nerve Radio.<\/p>\n<p>In the future, I would love to get into automotive or sports journalism with a specialisation being obviously in Radio.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/uk.linkedin.com\/in\/aidan-flanagan-b2242210b<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have been making, radio in various capacities since the age of 13 starting out in online radio.
