Cover picture shows Pudsey delighting a studio audience during November’s BBC Children in Need Appeal – just one example of how the BBC engages directly with licence fee payers and audiences. Foreword by the National Trustee The BBC Audience Councils advise the BBC Trust on how well the BBC is delivering its public purposes and serving licence fee payers across the United Kingdom. The four Councils – serving Northern Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales – are supported by the Trust to provide an independent assessment of audience expectations and issues. The volunteers who make up the Audience Councils in England have this year played their part in helping to shape the future of the BBC and its funding. As Chair of Audience Council England, I have been able to draw on audience views on the BBC Executive’s strategy proposals in Putting Quality First; these were elicited through three separate bursts of activity, from the beginning of the discussions last March through to the final submission by the Council in August.
