Forward Media is a media company based in Stockport, Merseyside which operated radio stations.[1]

History

Forward Media Ltd was established in 1998 primarily to acquire and operate Lite FM in Peterborough and Connect FM in Kettering.[2] Forward Media also previously owned Dune FM in Southport, which it purchased for £1.8m,[3] but sold the station to The Local Radio Company in September 2004. Connect and Lite were later sold to Adventure Radio.[4][5]
