Audience Council for Nothern Ireland

The most important function of the Audience Council for Northern Ireland is to listen to and engage with local BBC audiences and to champion their views to the BBC Trust.

The effectiveness of the Council’s work depends on the feedback from local audiences. We want to hear your views on different aspects of the BBC’s work and issues which you think the Council might address on behalf of licence-fee payers in Northern Ireland.

There are several ways you can make your voice heard. The Council hosts a number of events each year to listen to the audience. Details of current and upcoming activities can be found in the News and Events Section of the website, or you can sign up for our e-newsletter. You can also contact the Audience Council with your views and suggestions.

The Audience Council uses this feedback to inform its advice to the BBC Trust. It makes formal submissions to Trust consultations on, for example, proposals for new BBC services or reviews of existing services.
