Hereford Hospital Radio

Hereford Hospital Radio is located in Hereford, United Kingdom on Stonebow Unit/County Hospital/Stonebow Rd. Hereford Hospital Radio is rated 3.6 out of 5 in the category radio broadcaster in United Kingdom. Hereford Hospital Radio first began broadcasting in 1972, when Roy Romerill of the Hereford Youth Services had the idea of providing an entertainment service to the patients, staff and visitors of the three hospitals in Hereford. The first programmes which were broadcast on Hereford Hospital Radio were pre-recorded by the students of Hereford Sixth Form College, and they were played during Sunday evenings. When these students moved on, the station underwent temporary closure, and the Hereford Lions Club concentrated their efforts on re-building the service. A former hospital building was refurbished to provide us with a studio complex at the Hereford County Hospital, and Hereford Hospital Radio was re-launched with programmes being broadcast every day of the week, producing some 36 hours of live entertainment. Fast forward 2018 - Now with two new studios, more members, and a computer system enabling us to be on air 24 hours a day, keeping the station in action when no presenters are present, things are brighter than ever! A lot has happened in the past 40 years, here’s to the next 40!
