    Hi

    Brad, Willets and some other directories are available from your local reference library – getting an up-to-date copy is a challenge however!

    Brad subscription is expensive, so the media section of your University will be the most likely to have an up to date reference copy or more likely have an on-line subscription to https://www.brad.co.uk/info/how.html

    An alternative if you are a student would be to contact the media buyer at an advertising agency and see if they will assist you with your project – I’ve assisted students in the past with project work (Sorry, but I don’t have this subscription as I don’t buy advertising) and its very rewarding. To get you the required data would take them an hour of their time and a suitable reward would be to offer them a copy of your paper. Best to ask if you could visit them and see how they do the work, then you’d get an additional insight and they’d get to see who they were assisting.
