Hospital radio isn't just about playing music—it's about brightening someone's day. It helps to lift spirits, ease loneliness, and create a comforting atmosphere. Whether it's a favourite song or a friendly voice, hospital radio brings a sense of connection and makes patients feel a little more at home during their stay.
If it's a Thursday night, then I'm with you for the first hour of the request show at 8pm, including your requests collected by our request collector Mags at the Royal Free hospital to help get you through your stay. If she has recorded your voice with a message, then listen out during this and the next hour and don't forget to challenge the grey cells with some quiz and diverting facts to add to the fun !
