Radio Training

So you want to be the next Chris Evans or Zoe Ball, well we're not quite sure about that but if you want to work for your local hospital radio station then we can probably make that a reality. Sheffield Hospital Radio is a volunteer run hospital radio station based in the heart of Sheffield. Our volunteers gain a positive rewarding experience from learning new skills, meeting new friends and having fun at the same time.

Being a volunteer presenter is lots of fun you get to play great music, drink tea and chat to lots of interesting local people. We even get out and about in the summer to events and fairs around the city raising funds to keep the radio station going. A good knowledge of the local area helps as you keep our audience up to date on what's happening while they are spending some time in hospital. If you have a specialist music knowledge that is also something we are looking for to add to our programming.

Not keen on being a presenter? No problem at all, there are plenty of other ways to get involved at the station. We offer full training in scheduling music using our professional computer playout system, along with opportunities to develop skills in social media management, fundraising and publicity, plus a range of general office-based tasks.

We're looking for enthusiastic people of all ages and backgrounds who are ready to get involved! Great communication skills, good local knowledge, strong organisation, solid IT skills, and a positive willingness to learn will all be a big plus.

At Sheffield Hospital Radio, it's all about rolling up your sleeves, getting stuck into a wide range of activities, and picking up exciting new skills by doing. Every day's different, and that's exactly how we like it!
