GAIRM: Inneachar Fuaime - Raidió/Digiteach
Inneachar fuaime/raidió:
Táimid ar thóir inneachar breise fuaime le craoladh inár sliotáin rialta raidió ar BBC Raidió Uladh agus BBC Raidió Feabhail, mar chuid dár sceideal samhraidh i mí Iúil agus mí Lúnasa, i rith na Nollag, i rith na Cásca agus ar laethanta saoire poiblí. Áireofar inneachar do shraitheanna podchraoltaí chomh maith.
Ba mhaith linn sraitheanna 30 bomaite a choimisiúnú a d’fhéadfaí sraitheanna leantacha a dhéanamh astu amach anseo. Áireoidh muid idir shraitheanna gearra agus shraitheanna fada ach ceithre eagrán ar a laghad agus deich gcinn ar a mhéid a bheith táirgthe leo. Ná bíodh inneachar na sraitheanna seo sainiúil d’aon am ar leith.
Áireofar fosta cláir aonair faisnéise 30 bomaite ar fhad a dhéanann anailís ar thráthanna suntasacha, eachtraí staire agus comórthaí nó cuimhneacháin ina measc.
Inneachar sa bhreis a bheidh san inneachar seo a chuirfeadh go maith lenár n-aschur reatha raidió agus digiteach. Is fiú smaoineamh ar an dóigh is fearr le do shraith raidió a cheangal le hábhar digiteach. Tá spéis againn i gcónaí tacú le hábhar oiriúnach do dhaltaí na nGaelscoileanna agus a dteaghlaigh, agus tá an-spéis againn i mbliana in ábhar a chuirfeadh lenár n-aschur digiteach le linn Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann atá i mBéal Feirste i mbliana.
Níl muid ag lorg irischlár óir is é sin atá againn lenár n-irischlár suaitheanta, Blas.
Ba mhaith linn inneachar úr fuaime a fhorbairt sa choiméide agus sa drámaíocht.
Tá spéis againn i gcónaí cuidiú le forbairt scileanna agus deis a thabhairt do scríbhneoir úr nach bhfuil saothar s’acu tar éis a bheith léirithe ar raidió nó teilifís roimhe, dráma a scríobh don raidió.
Chuirfimis fáilte fosta roimh chomhléirithe le craoltóirí eile nuair is cuí.
Amharc ar bbc.co.uk/gaeilge faoi choinne ár n-aschur agus seánraí raidió reatha uile.

Inneachar digiteach:
Táimid ag lorg inneachar fosta dár n-ardán digiteach bbc.co.uk/gaeilge a bheidh de bhreis air sin atá againn faoi láthair.
Áireoidh muid inneachar nuálach don lucht éisteachta óg, go háirithe dóibh siúd atá á gcur fríd an Ghaelscolaíocht, go mbeidh sé mar thacaíocht ag na daltaí óga agus ag na teaghlaigh.
Cuirfidh muid fáilte roimh smaointe/ábhar don Fhoghlaimeoir Fásta (gach leibhéal) mar shampla podchraoladh d’ardhchaighdeán nó formáidí eile.
Áireofar fosta inneachar a chuirfeadh go maith lenár mbloic chraoltóireachta bhliantúla don raidió, go sonrach le haghaidh Seachtain na Gaeilge (1-17 Márta gach bliain) agus Oireachtas na Gaeilge 2026 (deireadh Dheireadh Fómhair).

Audio/Radio content:
We are seeking additional audio content that can be broadcast in our regular radio slots on BBC Radio Ulster and Radio Foyle as part of our summer schedule in July and August, at Christmas, Easter and on bank holidays. Content for Podcast series on BBC Sounds will also be considered.
We wish to commission 30 minute series which have the potential to be returning. We will consider short and long series offering a minimum of 4 episodes and a maximum of 10 episodes. The content of these series should not be time-specific.
Single 30 minute documentary programmes which analyse significant moments in time, including historical events or anniversaries will also be considered.
This new content will be additional to and complement our existing radio and digital output.
You might consider how your radio series could connect with digital output.
We are always interested in content that will support children attending local Gaelscoileanna and their families and we are also interested in content that would complement our output on digital for this year’s Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann which takes place in Belfast.
We are not looking for a magazine-style programme as this is well served by our flagship magazine programme, Blas.
We are keen to develop new audio content in Comedy and Drama.
We encourage new writers to get in contact with us, those whose work has never been produced for radio or television before and we are always keen to support skills development with a view to writing a script for radio drama, in particular.
We would also welcome co-productions where appropriate with other broadcasters.
See bbc.co.uk/gaeilge for all our current radio output and genres.
Slot duration: 30 minutes (7.30pm-8pm slot Monday-Thursday on BBC Radio Ulster/Foyle/Sounds)
Slot season: July & August (10 x 30’ slots); Christmas holiday period (8 x 30’ slots); Easter (4 x 30’ slots), local bank holidays/events/anniversaries (singles)

Documentaries (incl series): £3k - £6k

Digital content:
We are also looking for content for our digital platform bbc.co.uk/gaeilge which is additional to our current offering.
We will consider innovative content for younger audiences, particularly those who are opting for Irish-medium education, that the resources might support them and their families.
We will consider proposals for content for Adult Learners (all levels) such as a high quality podcast or other formats.
Content which would complement our special annual broadcasting blocks for radio will also be considered, specifically for Seachtain na Gaeilge (1-17 March annually) and Oireachtas na Gaeilge 2026 (end of October).
