Volunteer with NH Sound, Hospital Radio

Becoming a volunteer at NH Sound, Hospital Radio is a rewarding and valued experience. It requires dedication and commitment from all its members and in return you will gain valuable experience of a working radio station, from presenting to engineering, admin to events organisation and outside broadcasting.

What will I do?

One of the key requirements of Hospital Radio members is ward visiting to collect requests and messages from patients who may like a particular piece of music played. Depending on your area of involvement, you will be trained up to use the equipment enabling you to present a show from the studio or get a chance to do live presenting at our events. You will learn the role of Production Assistant and how they contribute to studio shows as well as be expected to contribute to meetings and the general development of the station. Each member is also expected to help out with fundraising events during the year.

What does NH Sound look for?

Energy, passion, dedication, and something that you can bring to the station. Maybe you have great musical knowledge and want to develop a specialist music programme, or you have a strong understanding of computers and can offer support in the studio, or you may have a passion to work on our news programme using your journalistic skills. Or you may enjoy meeting people and would like to ward visit. Perhaps you have fundraising skills - and ideas! Whatever you have to offer, we will help you to utilise your skills for the ongoing development of the station.
