The number of listeners tuning to 91Èȱ¬ Local Radio every week has risen by 298,000 in the last three months, according to the latest official figures released today by Radio Joint Audience Research (RAJAR).

The figures show that 7,726,000 people now listen each week – an extra 298,000 listeners across England compared to last quarter – and up by 35,000 year on year compared to Quarter 1 2010 when local radio listening benefitted from substantial snow-related listening.
