Hospital Radio Norwich

About Hospital Radio Norwich

Hospital Radio Norwich is a volunteer‑led service for patients, staff and visitors at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital. Its presenters provide friendly company at the bedside, with request programmes that let wards choose favourite songs, plus features designed to lift spirits during a stay. The schedule mixes light music with conversation, birthdays and messages from family, alongside simple health and wellbeing information when appropriate. News and snippets from Norwich and Norfolk help patients stay connected to the outside world.

The station operates as a charitable organisation, training volunteers in presenting, production and ward visiting so they can collect requests safely and respectfully. Shows are tailored to the hospital day, with calm companionship overnight and brighter programmes at busier times. Through links with hospital teams and local groups, Hospital Radio Norwich celebrates achievements across the trust and the city. Patients can listen free at the bedside where available and online, bringing a reassuring local voice to the wards.
