Heart

Heart, the UK's biggest commercial radio brand.

First launched in the West Midlands in 1994, Heart arrived in London in 1995 and the East Midlands in 2005.

The Heart sound has become the most popular in commercial radio and now extends to 33 stations across the UK, reaching more than 7.3 million* people every week.

Heart 106.2 is the new No.1 Commercial Station in London with nearly 1.9 million listeners*

With 'More Music Variety' Heart plays the best variety of music with witty banter and celebrity guests. In London, 790, 000 listeners* start their day with a bit of Jamie and Harriet in the morning - jam-packed and star-studded, only the A-listers make it onto the show. But Jamie and Harriet aren't alone. Each of our Heart stations across the UK has its own local breakfast show of the highest standard.

Local breakfast and drive, coupled with national programming from Leicester Square at other times of day, including Saturdays with Emma Bunton, means Global Radio offers the national brand of Heart, delivered both nationally and locally - the best of both worlds.
