I have been a volunteer at Hospital Radio Hillingdon for almost a year. I decided to join after spending many hours at home listening to the radio and wishing I could create a programme of my own. I'm also addicted to music and built up a massive CD collection and thought I should share my passion for a wide variety of tunes. It's a great opportunity to see what goes on behind the scenes too with radio production and editing shows.

I record the local news once every five weeks which is broadcast to patients twice a day Monday-Friday. I am studying for an MA in Journalism and have written a couple of articles about the broadcast marathon to help support the fundraising events.

It's great fun volunteering and taking part in the social events such as quiz nights and Chinese buffets. You also get to go out on the road and have the opportunity to meet lots of people when supporting local causes.
