Heckington Living Community Radio

Heckington Living Community Radio is a voluntary, community internet radio station originally established to serve the people of Heckington in Lincolnshire, United Kingdom. Founded in March 2020 by Andy and Patricia Mellett Brown, the station was created to help mitigate social isolation and keep the community connected. It is run entirely by volunteers on a not-for-profit basis, does not broadcast advertising, and offers a 24/7 mix of live and automated programming, making it easy to listen live from anywhere.

The station's programming is diverse, featuring daily live shows with music, chat, and quizzes, alongside comedy, dramas, documentaries, and church services produced collaboratively with local and regional groups. This community-focused content exemplifies the spirit of Heckington and aims to connect listeners with each other and their families. You can stream online to hear a wide range of voice and music programmes, with presenters engaging directly with the audience in the station's interactive "Live Lounge".

Heckington Living Community Radio has expanded from its local roots to serve a national and international audience, holding out a hand of friendship to all who tune in. Affiliated with the voluntary group that publishes the Heckington village magazine, the station continues to entertain and support the community through its accessible, volunteer-driven model. Whether through live streaming or the ability to listen radio online, HLR remains dedicated to its listeners, who are at the heart of everything it does.
