BBC West Midlands broadcasts at ‘The Mailbox’ in Birmingham city centre and has been since the deconstruction of its previous Pebble Mill studios in nearby Edgbaston.

The Radio is versatile in that it covers a range of topics, this includes sports talk and commentary usually for teams within its broadcasting region it was also hosts casual chat shows and plays music.

I believe BBC WM would be an ideal radio station for me to advertise my magazine on, the BBC alone is one of the largest Media Broadcasters in the world and attracts a range of ages and cultures; it has a number stations for different cultures and ages therefore it will already have a lot of respect from citizens and more people would tune into the main local BBC Radio Station (e.g. BBC WM) for news gossip etc.
