Welcome

Welcome to Radio Warneford, the award-winning hospital broadcasting service based at Warwick Hospital in the heart of Warwickshire. Our volunteer members have been providing quality radio entertainment to both patients and staff since 1973.

On these pages, you will be able to read about our service and the programmes we broadcast, discover our humble beginnings in an old broom cupboard in 1973 and find out about the latest news and developments around the station.

There are full details of both recent and forthcoming special broadcasts and fundraising events and information about how you can get involved in hospital radio, either here with us at Radio Warneford if you live nearby, or at a station in your area.

Below you will find the latest news about our programmes and events and brief details of some of the most recent changes to our site, with links straight to those pages.

Thank-you for visiting our web site - we hope you find it interesting.
