Coventry Hospital Radio

Coventry Hospital Radio is a volunteer-run hospital broadcasting service established in 1972, dedicated to patients at University Hospital Coventry and Warwickshire. Managed by an elected committee, the station provides free, 24-hour entertainment directly to bedside units, relying entirely on donations as it is not funded by the NHS. You can listen live to a diverse mix of music and talk programming designed to brighten the days of those in care, with opportunities for patients to request songs and engage with the station.

The station operates with a full team of volunteers who receive training to present shows and visit wards, fostering a direct connection with the hospital community. Programming includes various music shows and special features like interviews, podcasts, and dedicated sports coverage such as The PUSB Show for Coventry City FC fans. Anyone can stream online to enjoy this community-focused output, which also features local news and weather updates for listeners.

Beyond the hospital walls, Coventry Hospital Radio is accessible worldwide through its website and various streaming platforms, offering live streaming of its comforting and companionable service. The station actively seeks new volunteers and community support through fundraising events to sustain its operations. Whether you are a patient, a local supporter, or a listener from further afield, you can listen radio online to this longstanding station dedicated to providing a pleasant auditory environment.
