Independent Pridal Radio

Independent Pridal Radio was a type of radio licence given out by the Radio Authority in the United Kingdom between 1994 and 1996.

All stations were aimed at certain LGBTQ+ communities, with one community having one station.

History
After the finishing of the Incremental licences, the Radio Authority, just being split from the IBA, had talks about making a type of licence for stations aimed at LGBTQ+ communities, this idea came into action in 1993 as it contained 22 licences for 22 different pridal communities.

The first Independent Pridal Radio Station to launch was London Lesbian FM on May 1st 1994, and the last one was Panrom-1548 on June 8th 1996.

Like the ILR stations, the IPR stations are not independent as of today, some of them got shut down, some of them were merged with other stations, and some of them still exist under a nationwide name.
