‘Many congratulations to everyone who has worked on PRIX EUROPA for reaching the 40th anniversary. At BBC Audio, we believe great audio story-tellers find stories that get under the skin of modern life and give us a greater understanding not just of the world we live in, but more importantly the world as it is experienced by other people.  PRIX EUROPA is a wonderful celebration of that work and a showcase for some of the best of these stories.’

Chris Ledgard coordinates the Audio Documentary category.
