Eastbourne Radio DGH calls for support
and live on Freeview channel 276

Run by a team of experienced broadcasters and volunteers, the station is played across the main hospital free of charge.

Hide AdIt can be heard on channel one of the Hospedia system for patients, and also via the station’s website.
Roger Dakin, one of the presenters, said everyone works on the station for free, presenting two-hour slots throughout the day.
He said, “We’re keen to get more local people listening to us, we want to push ourselves out there more.”
The stations can take requests and broadcast dedications to patients, something Roger said gives people ‘a lift’ when they’re in hospital – especially due to current circumstances meaning that visitors are limited.
