Hi there,

You’re receiving this because you signed the petition to save The Iain Anderson Show and opted in to receive updates — thank you for lending your voice to this chorus.

In just a day, over 2,500 people stood up to say that Scotland’s music deserves better, and that a show with 80,000 loyal listeners shouldn’t be cut adrift without a fight.
That kind of response isn’t just numbers.
It’s a heartbeat.
It tells us this matters.

I’m getting in touch with a quick update and a small call to action.

Where we are now
The signatures keep rising, and the message is spreading across social media, musicians’ circles, and listener communities. The more visible we make this, the harder it becomes for BBC Radio Scotland to ignore.

How you can help right now
Just one or two of these steps makes a huge difference:

Share the petition with friends, family, and fellow music lovers.
Post on social media — even a short line helps (“I discovered X because of Iain…”).
Tag BBC Radio Scotland or anyone with a platform who cares about Scottish culture.
If you’re a musician, add a sentence about what the show meant for your work.
Every share is another knock on the BBC’s door.
And the louder we knock, the quicker they’ll have to open it.

Thank you again for signing — and for caring.
This isn’t just about saving a radio show.
It’s about protecting the stories, songs, and small, shining voices that make Scotland’s culture what it is.

If you ever want to stop receiving these updates, just drop me a note — no hard feelings.

Warm wishes,
Norman
