Apply for a Broadcast Appeal on BBC Radio Ulster

The BBC provides up to 11 broadcast slots to local charities each year on BBC Radio Ulster/Foyle.

These opportunities are available to local charities and organisations that operate at regional or sub-regional level, or which are involved in international work. Appeals can be used to promote awareness of a charity’s work, or to make a request for volunteers and/or financial support. The latter requires additional information about your charity’s finances.

All Broadcast Appeals are subject to the BBC’s Editorial Guidelines and its Broadcast Appeals Policy.

The next closing date for Broadcast Appeals applications is Friday 13 March 2026. Appeal opportunities will be available from April 2026 onwards.
