Raj Baddhan, a highly influential and successful media executive has walked away with an Community Award by Dunya News, for Lyca Radio and Lyca Gold’s amazing work for the community in Greater London.
With over twenty years of broadcast experience, Baddhan was appointed as CEO of Lyca Media in January 2021. He oversees the full management and strategic operations of three key radio stations within the network, which broadcast across London (Lyca Radio, Lyca Gold and Time 107.5FM).

I want to say a huge thank you to our listeners for always sticking by the Lyca brand and our commercial partners for believing in our ethos.”
