Bradford needs a voice to represent it during 2025 and a wide range of personalities have put themselves in the running.
Last month, the BBC launched a talent search to find the next ‘voice of Bradford’ to report for the corporation on the UK City of Culture 2025 backed by Anita Rani, Kimberley Walsh and Jonny Bairstow. Members of the public were asked to record a 45-second audio or video clip describing what the city means to them. Now, 14 people are shortlisted for the role, with the winner due to be announced at Sunbridgewells on Sunday.
” Samuel, 27, of Saltaire believes “I can be the one to change people’s perceptions of who we are as Bradfordians”, while Manningham’s Ibrahim, 21, thinks the city “does not get enough credit for the things it’s got going on”. Humaira, 25 and an optometrist from Batley, spent a lot of time in Bradford growing up and says she understands “just how special the community” is and Ifra, 20, although she is from Slough, hopes to make a “lasting impact through my words”.
