Station History

Founded

2008

Click was originally called UTRN (University of Teesside Radio Network) which launched on 21st January 2008 and is managed by the university, whilst run by students. In the summer of 2009, the university changed it's name from University of Teesside, to Teesside University - meaning UTRN needed a rebrand. After running a competition to design the new name and look for the radio station, Click was formed and launched as a brand in Freshers' week of the 09/10 academic year. In 2018 the station rebranded and merged with other student media channels as TUXtra, a multimedia platform showcasing content produced by students and volunteers from Teesside University.
