Mary Penley
Hi, my name is Mary Penley and I joined Radio Hillingdon in September 2007. I first came across Radio Hillingdon when I was an in-patient in the hospital myself listening on my Patientline terminal! I have always loved radio so joining Radio Hillingdon is a way of giving back to the hospital that saved my life and of learning new skills. It is a great team of people, all giving their time for free to provide a service which we hope you enjoy. I like most styles of music including jazz and classical, and in my dim distant past I was directly involved with the rock music industry (my hearing isnt 'too' much affected!) I also love meeting people and listening to their stories,and so enjoy taking part in the road shows and reporting on local issues.

I currently co-present an early evening show with Jo Howlett on a Tuesday evening from 5-7pm. This a mix of easy listening music together with features which currently include a travel spot, together with the top films and books for the week. If you are reading a good book in hospital do let us know, and we can share it with our listeners. As I gain in experience as a presenter I hope to introduce a studio guest request spot where I chat to a member of the hospital / local community and then play a piece of their favourite music.

If there is anything you would like to hear us play or tell us about, then do make contact and let us know your views and suggestions.
