Radio.

I’ve always had a passion and interest in radio, having worked in local  radio, primarily across Production, Presentation and Programming roles.

I changed my career from radio to railways,
However, I am still passionate about radio and like to keep updated with what’s going on in the industry and i’m actively volunteering with Bedrock Radio (Hospital Radio).

Where i’ve worked.

Commercial Radio: Former presenter at Time 107.5, hosting The Weekday Afternoon Show across East London & South Essex. The show was regularly sponsored and featured a number of interactive features;

• • • Afternoon Delights: Relaxing songs that go with that ‘compulsory‘ tea break in the afternoon. (It’s a bit like diving into the biscuit tin and finding the last chocolate digestive and eating it with pure delight).

• • • 80s Vs 90s:  Two songs go head to head, listeners asked to vote for their ‘All Time Favourite‘ with the winning song played.
      

• • • School Run; We play the biggest charting songs while the kids are in the car with the parents…(Let’s be honest, parents only ‘Like’ new music, just because they think they are young)

Plus I have confidently covered a variety of shows from Breakfast, Drive & Daytimes and have covered specialist shows including Rock, Sport, Chart, Soul & Dance. I am fully proficient in Live and Voice Tracked presentation.

Additionally, I assisted in scheduling and integration of Advert Logs using RCS Zetta, Selector and Linker.

Internet Radio: I was approached by Decades Radio working with them in 2017, producing a version of ‘Diddy’ David Hamilton’s Decades Radio Million Sellers show, I also came up with a system for selecting million selling songs.

I was a cover presenter for Dean Martin on Decades Breakfast, which was simulcasted across community radio station NuSound 92FM (East London).

Hospital Radio: I am still actively involved with my local station Bedrock Radio, as a Trustee, and elected as Chairman for a consecutive years.

Some of my biggest accomplishments have been  overseeing the merger with Goodmayes Hospital Radio in 2015/16.
Changing the direction of the charity, converting to a CIO format, to push towards becoming a wider ‘Community Health’ radio, to appeal to a wider area as services change within the NHS.
Working with out Engineer, upgrade our studio providing an improved space with more reliable equipment to broadcast.
In 2023, we arranged to replace Whipps Cross Hospital Radio, upon their closure.

I secured Bedrock a C-DSP licence from Ofcom, to take the station onto local small-scale DAB in 2025 across North East London and South West Essex.

Finally, I support all our volunteers by scheduling, training and assisting in repairs, working with a Trustees board to operate the charity.

Myself and Bedrock Engineer Lee occasionally support other local hospital radio stations with IT & technical support, and recently worked with Harlow Hospital Radio who have ventured into online streaming.
