We are delighted to announce the winners of the 2020 Charles Parker Prize.
The Gold Award, as announced on 3 April, goes to Alexandra Morgan. The other four prizewinners are Gabriel Green, Lewis Harrower, Charlotte Hurrell and Richard Queree. The five winning programmes have been commissioned by BBC Radio 4 for broadcast on the network this coming summer, as part of their New Storytellers strand.
We are hopeful that the programmes from the runners-up, Bruce Guthrie, Chantal Herbert and James Montague, will be broadcast on Radio 4 Extra as in previous years.
