Interview with York Hospital Radio

Today the YorKAOS committee headed into the city centre for an interview with York Hospital Radio. Sharon Ward hosted an amazing conversation with Ada, Seth and Mabel, you can listen in on YouTube.

York Hospital Radio is a volunteer-run hospital radio station based at York Hospital in York, England. It has been broadcasting to patients since 1964, making it one of the longest-running hospital radio stations in the UK.

The station broadcasts 24/7 and provides entertainment, music, and information to patients at York Hospital. Their programming includes music requests, local news, sports coverage (particularly York City FC matches), and specialised shows.

The station is operated entirely by volunteers and is a registered charity. They rely on fundraising and donations to maintain their broadcasting service. The volunteers visit wards to collect song requests from patients and provide companionship, making it more than just a radio station but also a patient support service.
