A Digital Picture of Leicestershire

BBC Leicester

To celebrate 40 years of BBC local radio broadcasting in the city and county, BBC Leicester want you to create a digital record of Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.

A revolution in technology began on 8 November 1967 when BBC Radio Leicester went on air as Britain’s first mainland local radio station.

On the BBC's birthday we wanted to create a digital picture of Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland today – with your help. We wanted to make sure that every corner of our county was recorded as digital images.
