Ofcom has today published a statement on its decision to reject a Format Change Request from Heart Cornwall, following a public consultation.

Heart Cornwall had sought to change the 'Character of Service' of its published Format to bring the output of the station more closely into line with other stations in the Heart network. Ofcom rejected the proposed changes on the basis that the departure from the existing Format would narrow the range of programmes available to listeners in Cornwall by way of independent radio services
