RB1 commercial station rebrands in response to listener feedback

COMMERCIAL station RB1 enters a new era when it relaunches as Rotherham Radio on Monday (6).

The broadcast team remains the same — but they said feedback from listeners had favoured a more local name.

RB1 has been building its audience since starting in September 2020 with directors Paul Chadbourne and Chris Holden taking over the following year.

A new free app will also be available to download from next week.
